Road BadgerAfrikaans

See a broken robot? Just say it.

Press once and say what's wrong. Road Badger finds the road, sends it to the right desk at the City, and chases it until it's fixed.

Coming soon to Google PlayiPhone: coming later to the App Store.

How a report becomes a fix

  1. Press once and speak.Driving or on foot: "The robot at Jan Smuts and 7th is out." No forms, no account.
  2. Road Badger reads it back.It finds the road from what you said and where you are, and reads the report back to you in your language. Say yes, or fix it.
  3. It goes to the right desk.Streetlights, robots, potholes, road signs and illegal dumping each have their own desk. Road Badger picks it and sends the report with the exact spot and any photos.
  4. It gets a reference number.When the desk logs the fault, the reference number is added to the ticket.
  5. Road Badger keeps asking.Open faults go to the desk in a short daily follow-up until they are fixed.
  6. Residents say when it is fixed.Not the City: two or three people who pass by confirm it. A false "fixed" reopens the ticket.

One fault, one ticket

When your neighbours report the same pothole, they join the same ticket. The desk gets one clear report with a count, not fifty emails.

The City sees the fault, not you
