Ongoing rain causing slips all over our city. Big thanks to our team at Wellington City Council, and contractors from Downer NZ and Fulton Hogan who were out in horrible weather overnight clearing slips and trees. Heroes!!

Huge slip has taken out the northern end of Wilton Park. The fence has gone, and its back almost to the goalposts, and the ground looks very soft and unstable, with small bits of soil falling off as I watched. Fairly close to at least one house.

Huge slip has taken the end of Wilton Park out, fence at the end of the football field is gone and it’s almost at the goal posts. Looks very soft and likely to lose more ground down into Otari Wilton Bush. Sutherland Cres a shockcrete wall has come down crushing cars.

Contractors out through a very wet night clearing slips - these ones on Chaytor and Birdwood Streets, Karori. Heroes - thank you! It’s been exceptionally wet but asking our Roading management to update on key risk areas of the city and ongoing work on retaining/netting.
