# Roads - General, 22 Leitch Street, Somerfield, Christchurch 8024, New Zealand

Somerfield, Christchurch · filed 11 February 2026 · report 7721110
https://www.chch.live/report/7721110

> The poor quality & structure of Leitch Street is a long term issue & it has never been properly dealt with over the last 30yrs. The potholes continue to appear & have to be fixed yearly. The street is completely bald with only tar over it. It is a complete nightmare on hot summer days & residents & dogs are unsafe to walk on it, let alone the constant damage it must be doing to our car tires! Please redo our street for once & for all, properly with an asphalt mix & get rid of the high camber.
