A burst pipe on Majoribanks St, Mt Victoria, Wellington, spraying water into the air after a contractor severed a pipe. A motel’s windows are the latest victim of Wellington’s water woes after yet another unexpected geyser burst forth from a central city road when contractors accidently severed a drinking water pipe. Water would have to be closed off to up to 40 properties to do so. Videos on Twitter show the burst shooting water up into the sky with residents gathered outside. Road cones cordoned off the rest of the road, but one building was being hit significantly by the stream of water.
