📣Planned Water Shutdown Tuesday and Wednesday!

This week from Tuesday and Wednesday Council is undertaking major planned water pipe replacement work on the trunk main from the reservoirs.

When the work is being done it is likely to cause low water pressure and limited water in many areas.
In other areas the water will need to be shut off for a period.
👉🏿On Tuesday residents in the Bell, McKenzie, Hine Te Ariki, Short and Massey Street area will have a total water shut between 9am and 4pm.
👉🏿On Wednesday residents in eastern Kawerau will expect low to limited water this will affect the Onslow, Liverpool, Ward, Domett and Fenton Street area.

💧The water shut off is being completed during the school holidays so that schools will not be affected by limited or no water.

☎Please contact Council on 073069009 or check the Council website for more information.
