Taking a break...

FixMyStreet is going offline shortly, probably permanently. The software is old and needs a complete rewrite, the site is being bombarded by spammers, and it is debatable whether councils are receiving and/or acting on FixMyStreet reports.

As of now, it is not possible to post new issues, or updates to published issues.

If you have submitted on FixMyStreet, thank you for playing a part in one of Aotearoa/New Zealand's early civic tech projects.

manhole cover not flush with road causing excess noise

There is a manhole right outside our house (428). It is not flush with the road and when large trucks go over it there is an excessively loud crash, especially if that truck has a trailer on. As this is a main highway the excessive noise is not only during the day, but almost violently loud through the night and early hours of morning, waking both our 7 year old and 8 week old baby. Please adjust the manhole cover so it sits flush with the road and reduces or eliminates the loud noise.
