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.

The loose metal access road to the Cornwallis Wharf car park sends dust clouds over nearby housing. A typical summer weekend day has the lower parking area full with over 20-30 cars. The overflow upper grass area has at least 15 car plus trailer rigs 15 more cars. Dust clouds are formed from cars struggling for traction. The dust aggravates local asthma sufferers, pollutes our roof drinking water supplies, imprisons residents on fine days, fills homes with dust within 2 hours covering every surface with a layer of dust, rain run-off from the road is a nasty sludge that runs unfiltered into the harbour, hoons use the loose metal to practice rally driving, its a slip hazard to the numerous walkers accessing the beach and wharf, boat trailer users in the upper car park actually use the road twice per visit to launch and retrieve.
