Assessment of Water & Sanitary Services
Assessment of Water and Sanitary Services 2005 For the purpose of the water supply assessment Wellington City has been broken down into Brooklyn, Churton, Eastern Wellington, Johnsonville, Karori, Kelburn, Onslow, Southern Wellington, Wadestown, Tawa and Wellington Central. These are based on the MoH distribution zones in which these communities receive similar quality water from its taps. There are three main wastewater catchments in the city terminating at the treatment plants at Moa Point, Karori (Western) and in Porirua City. These will be treated as three communities for the wastewater part of this assessment. There are 42 stormwater catchments, defined by topography, in the Wellington area. These will form the communities for this part of this assessment. Table 1 shows the water, wastewater and stormwater communities in relation to each other. In the case of sanitary services, the community has been defined as the entire area of Wellington City. There are no major facilities (i.e. the hospital, educational institutions or the prisons) that are not owned by Council which have their own water supplies or disposal systems. 2.2 Non-reticulated communities The non-reticulated communities have been separated into the rural communities of Makara, Ohariu Valley, South Karori Horokiwi and the smaller Glenside settlement. Within the Makara community another community can be defined which is the Meridian Village. Within the first four communities all properties have individual methods of collecting potable water and disposing of waste and stormwater. The Meridian village has a combined water and wastewater system. There are 6 properties in Glenside which rely on unreticulated water supply, though there is uncertainty to which houses are served by the Councils wastewater system.

The ship went down in Cook Strait, only a few kilometres from where the Wahine was wrecked in April 1968, with the loss of 51 lives. Built of iron in 1864, on its Glasgow-Liverpool run the Penguin was reputed to be one of the fastest and most reliable steamers working in the Irish Sea. At the time of the wreck she had served the Union Steam Ship Company for 25 years, most recently on the Lyttelton and Cook Strait run. The Risso’s dolphin known to thousands as Pelorus Jack cavorted round the Penguin’s bows in the early years of the century, but after a collision in 1904 kept its distance — until January 1909 when it suddenly reappeared.

O-44 Seismic and Safety Performance Assessment and Strengthening of Tunnels in Wellington
Seismic and safety performance assessment and strengthening of tunnels in Wellington S. Arumugam & P. Brabhaharan Opus International Consultants, Wellington. 2016 NZSEE Conference ABSTRACT: Tunnels provide critical access for people and utilities in cities with rugged terrain such as Wellington City, where relatively short tunnels provide crucial access for vehicles, pedestrians, and water supply. The performance of a number of tunnels have been assessed and where necessary strengthened both to provide day to day safety and reliability, and resilience in earthquake events. This paper illustrates this through case studies of the seismic performance assessment and retrofit of the Hataitai bus tunnel and the Northland road tunnel. Seismic performance assessments of these tunnels that are largely constructed in Wellington Greywacke rocks, show that despite the rocks being tectonically deformed and highly fractured, the tunnels would perform well in earthquakes. However, the portal structures were found to be vulnerable to damage in earthquakes, and pose a safety hazard and the potential for blockage of access. The Northland Tunnel has recently been assessed and retrofit options have been developed, but these are yet to be implemented. The Hataitai bus tunnel was retrofitted using reinforced concrete buttresses, ground beams and rock anchors, to strengthen the portal structures. Since the portal structures have heritage value, the strengthening was carried out in a manner sensitive to preserve the heritage aspects as far as possible. The very steep rock slopes above the eastern portal was also assessed to be vulnerable to failure and posed a safety hazard, and hence was strengthened using rock bolts and mesh. 1 INTRODUCTION Wellington’s rugged terrain has meant that numerous relatively short tunnels form part of the region’s infrastructure that provide critical access for vehicles in buses, water supply pipelines and drainage systems.

Metlink School Bus Changes for Term 1, 2020
1 November 2019 J Laverock Scots College 1 Monorgan Road Strathmore Park Wellington Dear Jason RE: Metlink School Bus Changes for Term 1, 2020 This letter is to advise Scots College that there will be changes from Term 1, 2020 to public and designated school buses which your students currently use. These changes are aimed at improving the reliability and punctuality of bus services i.e. bus trips are more likely to run and to turn up on time, and the bus size better aligns with demand. We would like to acknowledge that under normal circumstances we would have consulted with you on the changes, particularly in relation to the designated school buses. Unfortunately, due to time constraints and operational needs we were unable to do so on this occasion. We have been working closely with NZ Bus to change bus timetables so they more accurately reflect actual time between the start and end of a trip. Part of this work has also involved assessing whether sufficient time has been provided for a bus to travel between the end location of one trip and the start location of the next trip. With the local and nation-wide bus driver shortages the extent of improvements that can be made have had to be balanced within the number of bus drivers and buses we have planned to have in January. This has meant we have had to makes sure we use the resource we do have available as efficiently as we can. To do this has involves the merging of some lower used school services (meaning some students may now need to stand), and replacing others with public service trips extended to schools during term times (ensures we retain a one bus journey for affected students).
