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.

U-turns at intersection

the current flow of traffic at peak times in the morning at the intersection of Te Irirangi and Sancta Maria Way (traffic towards botany Town Centre) provides delays for parents dropping off their kids for school. The parents now instead of turning right into Sancta Maria Way, turn left into Bishop Dunn Place. As soon as they enter Bishop Dunn Place they veer left and sweep around the traffic island to do a u-turn to drive from Bishop Dunn Place into Sancta Maria Way. This causes issue for legitimate traffic into Bishop Dunn Place, as we often have to stop suddenly due to traffic stopped perpendicular to traffic! often these u-turns are done with no warning. In addition, if they choose not to drive into Santa Maria Way, they turn left to proceed along Te Irirangi Drive, but before leaving stop on yellow lines so they can eject their kids before departing. This again causes issues an unexpected stopping by legitimate traffic leaving Bishop Dunn Place
