We built a new drinking water storage tank at Dip Road in Te Kamo to increase our stored water supplies for Te Kamo, Tikipunga and Hikurangi.

The new tank has a storage capacity of 4,280 cubic metres and doubles our water storage capacity at the site. 

The detailed design was completed and construction began in August 2024.

The contract to build the water tank included:

  • earthworks
  • a 5-metre retaining wall
  • a concrete water storage tank with a diameter of 28 metres and a height of 8.3 metres
  • pipework and valves.

The new tank is designed to last 100 years.
