Hi Caidee,

I had a reply from SCIRT about this issue as follows…

“we’ve checked with our teams in this area and they don’t think it is their work site currently – if you could ask the cyclist to get us the name of the contractor that would help, (and email info@scirt.co.nz) however we’ve also passed it onto the teams so they know cyclists are reporting incidents and they have a right to a safe patch on the road.”

If the situation hasn’t changed then you can help put it right by contacting them.

cheers.

Hi Caidee,

Thanks for the feedback. I checked fixmystreets.org.nz and you’re right, there seems something wrong with it locating the addresses. The work around is by entering your postcode – 8061 – then drag the map to the place you mean and then click on the exact location. That takes you to another page.

I will also pass your comment on to SCIRT’s Traffic Management Tactical Group.

Just yesterday commuting home (into the setting sun) I popped off Wainoni Rd onto the the footpath to get onto the cycle lane that goes over Anzac Drive . . and almost rode straight into a digger and large pile of earth! right on the corner. no warning signs out. I hauled anchors and was fine but had got a bit of a fright. I had no choice but to pull back onto the road and ride over the bridge with the cars, who were pretty good about it even through the bit where there’s no room for car and bike.
I tried to put this on the fixmystreet website and couldn’t as it recognised neither Wainoni nor Anzac bridge as a location! 🙁
