Fun coming to Daly Street

Hutt City Council is bringing some life back to the demolition site at the Daly Street - Andrews Avenue corner. In the future, this area will be near where the new City Link pedestrian bridge will land. For now, it's the perfect location to try out some temporary fun activities, decided on with the help of the local community.
