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.

A great deal of paper and plastic rubbish gets blown inland from the Recycling Container on Koputara. This accumailates in the kids playground and up wind of that.This results in a lot of litter - which the broken window theory tells us - results in people leaving more litter. Installation of wind break netting to the East (upwind from the prevaling direction ) and the west against the tennis court, while leaving the front access unaltered, would be a low cost option to reduce the dispersion of windblown material from the recuycling centre.
