FixMyStreet’s reports being public really helps

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008 by Francis Irving

Residents turn to web in lane fight describes a set of problems reported on FixMyStreet.

A NARROW mountain lane has been damaged and turned into an “international playground” for 4x4s and satnav-guided lorries, angry villagers claimed yesterday.

The interesting thing is the claim that making the reports public really helped pressurise the authority into fixing them

one [resident] claimed the local authority had now been “embarrassed” into action by the complaints on fixmystreet.com
