Map Of Wellington Blackspots - Your Two Cents Needed

Hi all

I am a volunteer for Cycle Aware Wellington. I am accountable for coordinating submissions to the councils in the region.

There is a biggie coming (the WCC Draft Cycling Policy) and there is loads of ongoing conversations about safety.

In order to better inform our submissions, I am compiling a map (see link below) showing the places where the road design is likely to induce an accident sooner or later. I would like to use the wisdom of the crowds (your wisdom!) to compile this map.

Can I count on you to contribute to this Google Map every now and then? Please add your own black spots, as they occur to you. The map is open for all.

Please give a meaningful description (e.g.: "Cambridge Terrace - Approaching the Basin") and a description telling others why this is a blackspot. If you can, please add a link to pictures, stories, and other information.

You can also add comments to existing blackspots.

I have started with a few blackspots - now you add yours!

Have fun, and keep pedalling.

Andre
