Port Waikato stormwater resilience project

Port Waikato’s stormwater network was affected when Cyclone Gabrielle hit, with damage to existing infrastructure and issues arising because of several landslips.

After completing initial repairs, Council successfully put forward a request for funding to central government and was allocated $2.35m to invest in stormwater resilience for Port Waikato.

Our specialist waters team has assessed the current stormwater network  and future demands for Port Waikato and has put together a list of projects that will improve its long-term effectiveness and resilience.

It is important that we prioritise the projects that will give greatest overall benefit. So, we have been working with the community to make sure we select the right areas to focus on.
