Our Project
Te Wai Takamori o Te Awa Kairangi is a transformational project for Te Awa Kairangi ki Tai - Lower Hutt. It includes crucial flood protection work, the Melling Transport Improvements, and Hutt City Centre urban revitalisation.
What's happening?

Daly Street
The Daly Street area is a key site within the future plans for development. To deliver on the objectives above and our vision for this area, Hutt City Council acquired three buildings and surrounding sections along Daly Street.

Property Removal on Pharazyn, Marsden, Mills and Daly Streets
Removing properties will make room for the river by allowing stopbanks to be set further back from the river edge, and improve flood defences. It will also create new spaces for future development around the city centre.

Melling Line Closure
In August 2023, Greater Wellington councillors endorsed the closure of the Melling Line for up to 18 months from July 2024 for the construction of vital infrastructure.

Te Awa Kairangi / Hutt River Gravel Extraction
During September and October 2023, gravel was extracted from Te Awa Kairangi / Hutt River by Greater Wellington as part of the planned management of the riverbed.
