Here’s how to help make the streets of Hobart better for all of us.
Report an issue
For simple things like a pothole, a branch overhanging a bike path or a damaged pole obstructing the footpath, use the free Snap Send Solve app on your phone to take a photo & send a report.
The report goes directly to the responsible council or other organisation. Voilà!
Feedback on a consultation
The councils in Hobart & the Tasmanian government regularly ask the community for feedback on plans & projects. To make it easy we post any consultations involving transport & mobility on our Consultations page.
