Stanley Bay Reserve stormwater outlet project

How we are improving the performance of the water network, reducing seawater flooding and smells, and enhancing the reserve at Stanley Bay.

​What the proposed improvements will do

These improvements will:

  • reduce the risk of flooding to residential and recreational Stanley Bay properties
  • improve water quality at Ngataringa Bay
  • reduce foul smells in the area
  • improve the environment for people, birds and marine life
  • minimise wastewater overflows into Auckland Harbour
  • enhance and upgrade Stanley Bay Reserve.

How we will do this

We will:

  • replace the existing bund and culvert pipe at the coastal boundary
  • build a plant bench and a footbridge
  • create salt water zones
  • reshape the watercourse banks
  • add infill planting and mulching
  • clear debris and sediment.
