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.

Montreal / Hereford temporary traffic management

This issue has been fixed.

The way the left turn lane on Montreal St at Hereford St has been closed forces any person on a bike to merge into the relatively narrow traffic lane, into traffic that isn't realistically doing the 30 kmh speed limit. It would actually be possible to make allowance for cyclists within the coned-off lane without compromising safety. If this is not possible, I would appreciate being told why (I am qualified as an STMS, so will understand what you are talking about). Thank you, Ben

Setup has been adjusted to provide space for bikes for the time being - indications are that the work will continue onto Montreal St, which may take that away.
Issue marked as fixed.
