A urgent message from Watercare:

Urgent message for Warkworth customers, (7.15am Thursday 27 April) We need you and your whānau to reduce any unnecessary water use immediately. Please keep your showers short, turn off any irrigation systems and it would be a good idea to hold off doing that load of laundry.

There has been a significant watermain break that has caused local reservoir levels to drop. Our crew is on-site on Elizabeth Street working to fix the fault, but we need your help until a repair is in place.

Please share this post to help us get the message out to everyone in your community.

8.40am update: For customers without water, a water tanker is on its way and will be located outside 6 Falls Street. Please fill up containers and bottles with water as you need.
