    Wellingtonians are being told it'll be a while before they can get back in the harbour - where wastewater is being discharged

    Wellingtonians are being told it'll be a while before they can get back in the harbour - where wastewater is being discharged


    A collapsed tunnel in the CBD means wastewater is overflowing near Frank Kitts Park.

    It's likely to overflow into the harbour at the Taranaki dive platform.

    Wellington Water CEO Colin Crampton says it's unclear how long the warnings will last.
