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.

Traffic Light Sensor Placement

Traffic Light sensor is placed too closely to the line. When coming from Puhinui (side where Great South road is) turning right into Carruth Road. The sensor seems to be placed too close to the line. So when cars stop, and leave a 1 metre gap before the line, the light will not go green, untill the car has moved right up to the light. This causes traffic to be backed up when turning left and causes frustrations. This problem only started after there were roadworks. It seems upon fixing the road, the sensors had been moved futher up.
