Urenui water pipes replacement

Status: Finished.

Project overview

We have replaced nearly all of Urenui’s water pipes over 18 months. This was an important project to resolve Urenui’s long-standing issue of water pipes bursting and is part of NPDC’s $248m commitment to fix the plumbing in our district.

This project rolled out in three stages:

Area one: Completed. (Replaced 665m of old pipes on the western edge of Urenui between Whakapaki Street, Dowman Street, and Te Rangi Hiroa Place.)

Area two: Completed. Area two stretches from State Highway 3 to Ritimona Street, and includes parts of Ngapapa Street and Ngakoti Street.

Area three: Completed. Area three takes in a circular block around Ngakoti Street, Totara Street, and Ngapapa Street on the east side of State Highway 3.
