# Roading/Streets, 19 Leitch Street, Somerfield, Christchurch 8024, New Zealand

Somerfield, Christchurch · filed 22 December 2021 · report 2029131
https://www.chch.live/report/2029131

> Leitch St has multiple potholes & full of wet tar patches related to never been properly upgraded since originally constructed early 1900s at least! There are multiple properties being redeveloped in this street & trucks are ruining our street further. Despite numerous requests & official deputations & petitions for this for over 20yrs - minimal effort has been put into it. :( Something has to be done about Leitch St & soon. If the tar starts ruining our driveways & homes there will be even more concerns to address.
