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.

I sent a "contact" message from this website asking about a http://fixmycity.org.nz variant since I did not get a reply, I thought I would try out the "other" category. As I was leaving the 277 Newmarket supermarket tonight I noticed there was a couple of supermarket trolleys blocking the down escalator. My point is sometimes deaths come from not the primary incident itself like a fire but from secondary problems like "the emergency exit doors were locked" or in this case if a lot of customers rushed out of the building in a hurry tripping over trolleys, left by previous "dork" customers. (This photo was taken 19:01,7:01pm) Is it just too hard for people to think "SAFETY!" I am really getting disappointed with sloppy safety standards frequently seen with just about every aspect of our community, I honestly feel that more compulsory safety standard courses needs to placed of "all of use" in the workforce, it could have a good flow effect to avoiding accidents.
