> Hi, When I'm driving I can't take a pic, so screenshotted Google to show where. But that dip on Matipo St that goes right across the road from the upstairs exit ramp from Riccarton Mall just gets worse. it never used to dip until the earthquakes. Anyway, does anyone check the underwater stream that apparently runs under the mall? if the road is dipping like that, what's going on under the mall? Just after all the rain, I'd hate to see a giant sinkhole appear in the road, or worse.
