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.

Broken street light (& truck!) causing poor visibility - risk of crash

A street light is out at 44 Ashton Fitchett Drive. There is a bend before this address which cars speed around. The main problem is that there is a large truck parked next to street light which cannot be clearly seen due to the bend. Regular fog on the street causes additional problems as it is difficult to see the truck in the fog. A car has crashed into a fence (almost hitting a house) on this bend a few years back due to poor visibility during fog and I am concerned this could happen again. Please fix the street light to aid visibility. WCC were notified about 3 weeks ago.
