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.

Footpath blocked, pedestrians forced onto segregated cycle lane

Temporary fences have been put up outside some of the bars on the southern side of St Asaph St just west of Colombo St to corral patrons wishing to enter their establishments. Unfortunately these entirely block the footpath in at least 2 locations, forcing pedestrians onto the segregated cycle lane. This presents a hazard for both cyclists and pedestrians. Are these bars really allowed to take over the footpath like this? If not, maybe they could fund works to either widen the footpath or provide a barrier between the footpath and the cycle lane?
