Step 1 - YOU
Got a suggestion for how we can make our footpaths or biking and micro-mobility network safer?

Noticed a general maintenance issue such as overgrown vegetation on a footpath path, glass in a cycle lane or a damaged sign on a shared path?

Step 2 - YOU
Step 3 - COUNCIL
What happens once I've completed the incident form?
Reports are regularly reviewed by our City Transportation Unit as part of our commitment as a Council to a Vision Zero goal for road safety. The information provided contributes to an ongoing process of assessing safety risks and prioritising network improvements as part of our Low Cost Low Risk Programme and Biking and Micro-mobility Programme. The prioritisation of improvements is important as we can't deliver everything we want to at once.
When a network improvement is selected to be prioritised, the incident report information will be used alongside data already collected by our City Transportation Unit, such as traffic counts and vehicle speeds, to determine the types of improvements that are required. This could be anything from a cycleway or reduced speed limit through to cycle wands or a raised safety platform.
