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.

Cautionary signage required for cyclepath

There is a new shared pathway that connects Ti Rakau & Stonedon Drive. There is a long wooden bridge across the estuary, which should have cautionary signage at both north and south entrances telling cyclists to slow down. Especially the North entrance since the approach is a descent that quickly rounds a corner. This bridge is very slippery in the morning on a bike, and poses a real hazard for commuters. As a new cyclist I did not recognise the hazard these bridges pose, my tyres lost their grip to the bridge just after entering the bridge from the north entrance. This caused major wounds, and put me off cycling to work. Please install signage at the entrances to this bridge to urge cyclists to slow down to prevent more injuries.
