A section of wastewater pipe in Jeffery St, installed as part of renewal work on water and wastewater pipelines, has to be relaid after the wrong size pipe was used.
The pipe has to be replaced because it was too small and water overflowed from it on to the road during heavy rain.
It is expected to cost the council about $95,000 to correct the error.
A council spokeswoman said it was reviewing how the mistake happened and would follow it up as needed.

it is about time the Council and Cull were held accountable and rate payers were told the out come for the such like, $95,000 is not small change. What else is going under the radar unnoticed. Cull and those responsible are still willing to collect there pay cheque at the end of the week. All we hear Cull go on about is how good he and the council are. don't take this rubbish, Glad I've since left Dunedin
