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.

Poor visibility of oncoming traffic at the intersection of Witheford Drive and Manuka Road

It is impossible to see traffic coming from either direction on Manuka Road when attempting to exit Witheford Drive. This is due to cars parked adjacent to the pavement on both sides of the intersection (but particularly to the right). Cars come down Manuka Road at speed, and because Witheford Drive goes sharply downhill from the intersection, motorists trying to exit are below Manuka Road's street level, and cannot see over the roofs of the parked cars. The only way to see the oncoming traffic is to pull most of the way out into Manuka Road, which is dangerous in itself. Previous requests to Auckland Transport to extend the broken yellow lines to the first driveway past the intersection have been declined. Perhaps a mirror on a pole would help? We desperately need the visibility issues fixed. It's a miracle there has not been a serious collision at this intersection.
