The record behind this
Every report above was filed by a resident through the council’s reporting channel and sits in Christchurch City Council’s public reports layer, which this page reads directly. A report is somebody’s word that the problem was there: counts here describe reporting, not verified inspections or fixes, and a closed job does not come off the record.
The live stream of everything reported is at /problems, the pins are on the map, and the whole-city shape is at /trends. This page as markdown: /problems/potholes.md.
