Report, view, or discuss local problems
(like graffiti, fly tipping, broken paving slabs, or street lighting)
What is FixMyStreet for?
FixMyStreet is a site to help people report, view,
or discuss local problems they’ve found to their local council by
simply locating them on a map. It launched in beta early February
2007.
- Can you give me some examples?
- Sure. Graffiti, unlit lampposts, abandoned beds, broken
glass on a cycle path; anything like that that could be usefully reported to
your council to be fixed.
- How do I use the site?
- After entering a postcode or location, you are presented
with a map of that area. You can view problems already reported in that area,
or report ones of your own simply by clicking on the map at the location of
the problem.
- How are the problems solved?
- They are reported to the relevant council by email. The
council can then resolve the problem the way they normally would.
Alternatively, you can discuss the problem on the website with others, and
then together lobby the council to fix it, or fix it directly yourselves.
- Is it free?
- The site is free to use, yes. FixMyStreet is run
by a registered charity, though, so if you want to make a contribution, please do.
