Shovel-ready funding granted to help fix Kaiapoi's flooding issues
Flood-prone areas in Kaiapoi will be improved after the Government promised $9 million to help fix drainage issues and reduce the risk of flooding.
Infrastructure Minister Shane Jones announced the funding on Tuesday as part of the $3 billion set aside for the Government’s Covid-19 Response and Recovery Fund.
The Waimakariri District Council will use the money to reduce the affect of flooding at homes and businesses by constructing three pump stations and associated infrastructure.
