27/03/19: update on proposed water reservoirs in Bell Rd (Brooklyn) and Prince of Wales Park (Mt Cook/Brooklyn fringe)
More news on the proposed water reservoirs in and around Brooklyn. The decision on this appears to be "up in the air a bit" due to substantial cost increases. The original price estimate of $30M (or so) was for both reservoir installations. The Bell Road reservoir -10M lt - was to replace the original 100y old reservoir with a replacement reservoir - has been delayed (at least) two years and the proposed larger new reservoir in Prince of Wales Parks 35M lt has had its initial price estimate of $29.5M to $58.2M. So don't expect the diggers to start work anytime soon...www.stuff.co.nz...
