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.

Contractors block the cycle lane and street is narrow

Contractors have put signs in the cycle lane on Victoria St at the intersection with Bealey. Because there is a right turning lane for cars going into Papanui Rd, the remaining lane is very narrow. If you are a cyclist entering Victoria St from Papanui you have nowhere to go, especially if there is a bus or a truck.

And today contractors were parked up behind the sign too with ute + trailer. Cycle safety nightmare.
