Ah yes, Wellington's infrastructure doing exactly what we pay rates for – flooding the CBD. What a shocker.
a load of shit, we pay rates through the nose for this
absolute joke. The state of this city's pipes is a disgrace. Tory and the council need to get their act together.
Poor businesses on Willeston St, this is gonna be a nightmare for them. Hope insurance covers it 😩
your dreams, council'll take weeks to even assess it
bet the council blames the weather again instead of actually fixing the pipes

Just walked past, water was gushing everywhere. Some tradie was yelling at a council worker, pretty entertaining lunch break tbh
Oh no, hope everyone's okay! Those old buildings are so vulnerable
facts, whole place is a third world country now
ffs another infrastructure fail. this city is crumbling
lol cope, the council will blame central government and nothing changes
Yeah nah typical Welly, one stiff breeze or a pipe sneezes and the whole place is underwater
stuffed, we know you love complaining but do nothing
Any intel on how long till it's sorted? Gotta get through Willeston St later
they've closed the road, avoid it if you can
