A wastewater overflow has entered Lake Whakatipu along part of the Frankton Arm near Goldfield Heights. The issue was resolved within five minutes of the overflow occurring, but warning signage has been erected on the lakefront in the affected area. Water quality testing is underway and signage will be removed once clear results are returned.

Arthur's Point Shotover River Crossing

About the project

This investigation looked at what could be done to improve the crossing at Shotover River, near the historic Edith Cavell bridge in Arthur's Point.

Following community engagement and technical investigations, the Single Stage Business Case was endorsed in March 2021.  

Funding to progress the improved crossing at Arthurs Point is currently included in years 9-10 of the 2021-31 Ten Year Plan.
