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.

Cycle lane blocked with no advance warning

City bound cycle lane on Hagley Ave between Selwyn St & Saint Asaph St has been blocked by City Care so they can install a new water main, but there is no advance warning for either cyclists or drivers of the closure. This site has been previously reported to CCC for not providing warning of the cycle lane closure (see FixMyStreet #5293 – which resulted in no action at all) but since then this section of Hagley Ave has been resealed, requiring the traffic management to be reinstalled. Unfortunately, despite the newly painted cycle symbols on the cycle lane, this site still lacks any advance warning of the cycle lane closure (and with the cones down the median, there isn’t enough space to get both a cyclist & car safely past the work site.
