We do our best to ensure reports go to the right place at each council. If there’s a better contact address for reports about [% report.category | html %] issues, please let us know. We can also add or remove categories if you wish.

How do we reply to this report?

Replies to this email will go directly into the report-maker's inbox. Your reply is not published on the FixMyStreet website (unless you use FixMyStreet Pro, which can display responses to help close the feedback loop).

Can you include more information in these reports?

If you need to receive extra data that isn’t currently included in the report, please let us know what’s missing.

Do we have to receive email reports from FixMyStreet?

No! FixMyStreet reports can be sent directly into existing council systems - and there are a few different ways this can be achieved.

How can FixMyStreet connect directly with council systems?

  1. You can do this yourself (for free) using our Open311 API
  2. We can build and maintain the integration for you (carries an annual fee)
  3. You can become a FixMyStreet Pro user. FixMyStreet Pro is a more advanced version of FixMyStreet, which seeks to eliminate the significant costs councils incur from duplicate reporting, unnecessary contact and failure demand (we have the stats to prove it!).

As a charity our goal is to help improve services for citizens and local authorities. To find out more about connecting FixMyStreet to your own systems, please get in touch.
