Mangatawhiri compartment 3 pump station upgrade

Funded: $324,000
Total cost: $650,000
Project starts: 2024/25
Project ends: 2026/27

This project is replacing an aged and poorly designed dual inlet at the Mangatawhiri compartment 3 pump station. Construction of an isolation gate will enable improved access and safety requirements for pump maintenance work, which is important for increased resilience against extreme weather events.

Status update:

• Concept design near completion.
• Procurement of construction service for inlet underway.
• Construction of the duty pump station platform is underway.
