Update  5.30pm, 12 August 2024
The water team is still working on the water main break in Eketāhuna that was reported this afternoon. The team has been doing all they can to avoid turning the water off this afternoon but the pressure in the pipe was too great and the water has been shut off to enable the repair to be carried out. Updates will be posted to the TDC Facebook page and Antenno as soon as the water is back on. Apologies Eketāhuna for this disruption at dinner time. Thank you once again for your patience.

------------------------------------------
Water for all Eketāhuna residents on town water will be shut down at 3.30pm today so our water teams can address a fault on the main water line.

Water will be off for at least two hours while the issue is investigated. We will update you when we know when it will be restored.
We would like to advise that Eketāhuna residents should fill up on drinking water now.

We apologise for the inconvenience and will provide an update as soon as we know more.
