Eight homes evacuated after Wellington central slip

From Morning Report, 7:45 am on 9 August 2022

The slips start coming and they don't stop coming.

Eight homes were evacuated yesterday after a large slip on The Terrace in central Wellington, which covered the road and ruptured two gas lines.

Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent due to climate change, and it is putting more pressures on local councils.

Wellington City Council's transport and infrastructure manager Brad Singh spoke to Corin Dann.
