Better Footpath Blitz - help make it easier to walk & wheel around Mt Roskill
Please report any broken, overgrown, or regularly flooding footpaths in the Greater Mt Roskill area* through the Better Footpath Blitz, open until 7th July.
We're hoping that by doing a big drive for people to log them, and putting them to Auckland Transport and Auckland Council as a bundle, we'll be able to get action - AT reckons Mt Roskill has better than average footpaths!
You can report them here - as many as you need to:

And there's a handy video explaining the Blitz at the Roskill Community Voice facebook page here: www.facebook.com...
Thanks
Julie
