Ngemva kosuku lwezikhukhula eKent Terrace, abasebenzi baseWellington Water baqede ukulungisa ipayipi elidala eliphukile izolo ebusuku. Ngo-10pm, lezi zindaba zivela eWellington Water:
"Ukuze indawo iphephe ubusuku bonke, izogcwaliswa futhi ibiyelwe ngocingo futhi ukuphathwa kwethrafikhi kuzohlala kuze kube sekuseni - kodwa sizosebenza ukuze sinciphise noma yikuphi ukuphazamiseka kwethrafikhi."
"Abasebenzi bazobuya ngoLwesine ekuseni ukuzoqedela umsebenzi wokugcina futhi silindele ukuthi indawo ibe ihlanzekile ntambama, bese kulandela ukubuyiselwa ngokuphelele esikhathini esizayo esiseduze."
Siyajabula ukukwazisa ukuthi ingozi yokwanda kokuvalwa kwemigwaqo namuhla kusihlwa inciphile, kodwa sisakhuthaza izakhamuzi ukuthi zigcine amanzi. Uma kwenzeka ukuvalwa okukhulu, kuzothunyelwa amathangi amanzi ezindaweni ezithintekile. Ngenxa yobunzima bokulungisa, silindele ukuthi umsebenzi uzoqhubeka kuze kube kamuva kusihlwa namuhla, kanye nenkonzo ezobuyiselwa phakathi kwamabili.
Izindawo ezingase zithinteke ngenxa yesevisi ephansi noma engekho nhlobo yilezi:
– I-Courtenay Place ukusuka eCambridge Tce kuya e-Allen St
– Pirie St ukusuka e-Austin St ukuya eKent Tce
– I-Brougham St ukusuka ePirie St ukuya e-Armour Ave
- Izingxenye zeHataitai neRoseneath
Ngo-1 ntambama, iWellington Water ithe ngenxa yobunzima bokulungiswa, isevisi egcwele ingase ingabuyiselwa kuze kube sebusuku kakhulu noma ekuseni kakhulu kusasa. Ithe abasebenzi bayo banciphise ukugeleza okwanele ukuze bambe eduze kokuqhuma.
"Ipayipi selivele liveziwe (isithombe esingenhla) kodwa ukugeleza kwalo kusalokhu kuphezulu kakhulu. Sizosebenza ukuhlukanisa ipayipi ngokuphelele ukuze ukulungiswa kuqedwe ngokuphephile."
"Amakhasimende ezindaweni ezilandelayo angase aqaphele ukulahlekelwa ukunikezwa noma umfutho wamanzi ophansi."
– Kent Terrace, Cambridge Terrace, Courtenay Place, Pirie Street. Uma wenza kanjalo, sicela wazise ithimba lokuxhumana namakhasimende leWellington City Council. Amakhasimende aseMt Victoria, eRoseneath naseHataitai ezindaweni eziphakeme angase aqaphele umfutho wamanzi ophansi noma ukulahlekelwa yisevisi.
Inhloko yezokusebenza kanye nobunjiniyela beWellington Water uTim Harty utshele i-Midday Report ye-RNZ ukuthi babenenkinga yokuhlukanisa ukuphuka ngenxa yama-valve aphukile.
Ithimba lokulungisa lalihamba ngenethiwekhi, livala amavalvu ukuze lizame ukuvimba amanzi ukuba angene endaweni ephukile, kodwa amanye amavalvu ayengasebenzi kahle, okwenza indawo yokuvala ibe nkulu kunalokho obekulindelwe. Uthe ipayipi liyingxenye yengqalasizinda yedolobha esigugile.

Ipayipi lamanzi eliqhumile ligcwale ingxenye enkulu yeKent Terrace enkabeni yeWellington. Abakhi bebesendaweni yezikhukhula - phakathi kweVivian Street neBuckle Street - ngaphambi kuka-5 ekuseni namhlanje.
I-Wellington Water ithe ukulungiswa kwayo kukhulu futhi kulindeleke ukuthi kuthathe amahora angu-8 kuya kwangu-10 ukuyilungisa.
Ithe umzila wangaphakathi weKent Terrace uvaliwe futhi icele abashayeli bezimoto abaya esikhumulweni sezindiza ukuba badlule e-Oriental Bay.
Ngo-5 ekuseni, amanzi ayemboze cishe imizila emithathu yomgwaqo eduze komnyango osenyakatho oya eBasin Reserve. Amanzi ayesefinyelele ekujuleni okungamasentimitha angama-30 maphakathi nomgwaqo.
Esitatimendeni ngaphambi nje kuka-7 ekuseni, iWellington Water icele abantu ukuthi bagweme indawo ngesikhathi kusetshenziswa ukuphathwa kwezimoto. “Uma kungenjalo sicela ulindele ukubambezeleka. Siyaqonda ukuthi lo mzila omkhulu, ngakho senza konke okusemandleni ethu ukunciphisa umthelela kubagibeli.”
"Kulesi sigaba, asilindele ukuthi ukuvalwa kuzothinta noma yiziphi izakhiwo kodwa sizohlinzeka ngolwazi olwengeziwe njengoba ukulungiswa kuqhubeka."
Kodwa ngokushesha ngemva kwaleso sitatimende, iWellington Water yanikeza ulwazi olusha olulandisa indaba ehlukile:
Abasebenzi baphenya imibiko yokungabikho kwenkonzo noma umfutho wamanzi ophansi ezindaweni eziphakeme zaseRoseneath. Lokhu kungathinta nezindawo zaseMt Victoria.
Futhi esinye isibuyekezo ngo-10 ekuseni:
Ukuvalwa kwamanzi endaweni – okwakudingeka ukulungisa ipayipi – kunwetshiwe ukuze kufinyelelwe eCourtenay Place, eKent Terrace, eCambridge Terrace.
Ukuze kugwenywe ukwenzeka kwezinhlekelele ezifanayo, i-radar yejubane lamanzi ehlakaniphile ingasetshenziswa ukuqapha ngesikhathi sangempela ukunciphisa ukulahlekelwa okungadingekile okubangelwa izinhlekelele zemvelo.
