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.

Roadworks sign dangerous to cyclists

Spraymarks have placed a “Cyclists Merging” sign totally blocking the shoulder on Hendersons Rd eastbound just before the Cashmere Rd intersection. Since it is placed just on the exit from a curve, it is not readily visible to approaching motorists, who may be surprised to find a cyclist popping out into the general traffic lane to get past the sign (especially as they won’t be exercising “Extreme Care”, since it is the “Extreme Care Cyclists Merging” sign that is causing this problem). Would be great if Spraymarks could move it 20-30m further away from the corner and onto the grass next to the shoulder (where an unused detour sign is currently located).
