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.

Please close the walkway between Elizabeth & Taharepa Road

The walk way is unsafe and allowing criminals, drunken youth and vandals shortcut via our neighbourhood. I have had my property vandalised twice this year alone and reported it to the police. It has cost me thousands in insurance excess. It is ruining our street and devaluing the properties in the neighbourhood. My tenants and i now longer feel safe, especially at night. Please help stop this by close the the pedestrian access way. It has been used a number of time as a getaway car place when thieves (armed often) rob the near by shops. Please feel free to verify this with police.

Request 1309397 closed at TaupoDC. Council are undertaking improvements to the accessway such as lighting, vegetation removal, painting fences etc which were identified in a report undertaken by the Neighbourhood Police team. Further assessments will be undertaken once these improvements are completed. At this stage closing the accessway permanently would be the last option due to the impact it would have to the local residents who use this
