Water quality testing has identified potential wastewater leakage into the stormwater network and outlets around Taranaki Street Wharf. A section of wastewater pipe on Cable Street has been identified as a possible contributor to this, due to its age and condition.

Works are expected to take place in the first half of 2027.
