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 quality of streeting, lack of infrastructure and design

I have come to learn that Packe Street is one of the oldest roads in Christchurch being named after George Packe 1836-1882, the first publication of Packe Street is 1903. Having learned this I was extremely disheartened when I drove down the road that it lacked any connection to Christchurch and was basically a poor, unmaintained, wide road with no character, thought or design, there are no trees and to which the area looks very industrial. I would like to see this road invested in with trees and grass being planted including a reference to George Packe a Lieutenant-Colonel who served with the 23rd Royal Fusiliers.
