Water Shut Down - Tuesday 18 July - Queen Street, Butler Street and Lusk Street, Te Kūiti

14 Jul 2023, 12:13 PM

WATER SHUTDOWN: Tuesday 18 July - Queen Street, Butler Street and Lusk Street, Te Kūiti.
Camex Civil will be undertaking works on behalf of Waitomo District Council to install and connect new water mains and supplies to the existing network in Queen Street, Butler Street and Lusk Street, Te Kūiti.
This will require a full water supply shutdown.
The work will take place on Tuesday 18 July with shutdown lasting at least six hours from 9am to 3pm. This may be longer if any problems occur.
If you will be at home, we recommend storing water for daily tasks such as drinking (approximately 2L per person), general hygiene and food preparation.
Once the water is turned back on, the main pipes will be flushed. This can cause air to become trapped. We suggest running your outside tap for five minutes and capturing the water in a bucket to reuse in your garden.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused during this time and thank you for your understanding.
