Queenstown enacts water restrictions for several areas around Lake Hayes due to high demand.

The Queenstown Lakes District Council has imposed water restrictions in areas around Lake Hayes due to unsustainable water demand. Affected areas include Bendemeer, Threepwood, Slopehill Road, and Arrowtown-Lake Hayes Road. Residents are required to use irrigation sprinklers only between midnight and 6:00 am. The restrictions aim to reduce water usage during the warm and dry summer, and the council is monitoring reservoir levels.
