Residents furious at month of Wellington Water’s noisy overnight works

Residents of Holloway Road, one of Wellington's oldest streets, are expressing strong opposition to a month-long project involving overnight wastewater pipe replacement. The extensive works, carried out by Wellington Water, have caused significant disruption and noise, leading to widespread anger among the local community.

A group of affected residents convened a meeting with representatives from the local council and Wellington Water to formally voice their grievances. The primary concern centers on the prolonged duration of the overnight works and the considerable noise pollution impacting their daily lives and well-being.

The residents' fury stems from the disruption to their sleep and the general disturbance caused by the essential but inconvenient infrastructure project. They are demanding clearer communication and mitigation strategies from Wellington Water to address the impact of the works on their neighborhood.
