Hello everyone and welcome to my blog.
Today Wesley intermediate had people from central inspector, explaining about the central interceptor.
We did different activity like virtual reality, putting together a puzzle and many more activity’s.
When I got back to class, we had to make a report about the central inspector.
Here is my mini report.

The Central Interceptor is a tunnel that takes wastewater to the Mangere sewage plant, and is one of Auckland’s biggest projects. Due to the old pipes being too old and too small, it couldn’t handle all the  waste water.

The drill making the tunnel is named after the Matariki star Hiwa-i-e-rangi.
The project will take five years and will cost (1.2 billion) New Zealand dollars.
They predict the tunnel will last 100 years, the tunnel will be 14.7km, 15m underground.
Hiwa-i-e-rangi is 4 rhinos tall or a giraffe’s height.
Thanks for reading my blog.
