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.

Due to the closer from Wairakei Road going to the motorway we are experiencing more heavy traffic flooding Stanley’s Road in Harewood. This has increase sufficiently and it continues to grow. Also the increase of foot traffic has increase due to the opening of the underpass from the intersection of Russley Road and Harewood Road opened late 2016. Stanley’s Road has now because a mini motorway in itself. My concern is the children that live on Stanley’s Road and many of the children commute by bicycle to and from school on a daily basis. I live on Stanley’s Road and have children that attend Harewood Primary. I have seen a few accidents by vehicles giving way to cyclist and also for cyclist wearing full safety cycling gears are having to give way to vehicles. There has been several little accidents with children going down the ditch because there is no footpaths and it is a great concern and I’m terrified that a tragedy could happen with someone purely innocent behind the wheel and a cyclist taking all precaution to keep safe and because of no foot path on both sides and a narrow little road for all this traffic coming through it is catastrophe and needs to be address to council to have this rectified it is extremely hazardous to all travellers.
