Aro St cleans up after torrential burst water main

From Checkpoint, 5:51 pm on 29 January 2021

Aro Street in central Wellington was mopping up today after spectacular scenes when a huge water main burst on Thursday.

It sent water gushing down the road and a huge geyser of water up to 20 metres into the air.

Today was a case of business as usual for locals. But the question on their mind - will it happen again?
