Bad Road Surface

Hi. There was road surface maintenance on Rarangi Rd a little while ago. However, now the road surface consists of tar that is too soft (melts in the sun), combined with thousands of small gravel stones that continue to get into every driveway and footpath and garage. The road surface is much worse than before the maintenance! We have to clean our driveway and garage of tar and gravel often, and our kids can no longer play on our driveway since it has often got sticky tar and sharp stones on it. This is the same throughout most of the length of Rarangi Rd and Waimarie St, St Heliers. We think that the surface should be asphalt, rather than tar/gravel, which would fix the problem. Could our road please be re-surfaced with asphalt? Please see the attached photo of our car tyre after just driving on the road. Thanks!
