Open Hastings / Street problems

Street problems

Problems on Hastings & St Leonards streets that residents have reported and the record still shows as open — potholes, broken lights, blocked paths. These are ongoing conditions, not live events: the live page covers what is happening right now.

Each report is placed by its own coordinates; "near" a street is the nearest listed street, not an address the reporter gave. These are things residents chose to report, not everything the highway authority knows about.
