Dog poo on the footpath

  • Call Auckland Council on 09 301 0101 to log a job
  • Tell them it is an urgent one hour service required to clean up dog poo
  • Unfortunately it is probably faster for businesses to clean the dog poo themselves, before it get stepped on
  • Remuera footpaths are cleaned with water by Auckland Council contractors every Sunday evening, so any dog poo residue should be removed at that time.
  • Contact the RBA if there is an ongoing problem with footpath cleanliness

  • Auckland Transport owns the footpaths and gives permission for various contractors to access utilities in them
  • Footpaths are often left dangerously patched by contractors, and become tripping hazards
  • Issues with the footpath should be notified to Auckland Transport immediately, especially if a health & safety incident has occurred.
  • If urgent, call Auckland Transport on 09 355 3553 or log a job online with a Feedback Form on the Auckland Transport website.  
  • Take a photo of the footpath to upload when you are filling out the Feedback Form.
  • You will be emailed a Job Number - keep this as it is often necessary to follow up to make sure the job is completed.
  • Contact the RBA if there is an ongoing footpath issue that is not being fixed.
