I'm a regular user of the Tauranga Harbour bridge and while driving onto the on-ramp from Chapel Street a heavily laden stream of water cascaded onto my car from the road above.
This is the second time this has happened to me and I feel that it poses a serious risk of harm to other travellers. I'm not sure who I should send this to but was wondering if other travellers have had the same issue with the on-ramps or travelling under the bridge? Is this a council drainage issue?

Editor's note:
Thanks Ngaere, not it's not the council's responsbility but a state highway issue.
The NZ Transport Agency senior project manager Kevin Reid has advised 'the water that came off the Chapel Street Viaduct was caused by a blocked catchpit, which was made worse by recent heavy rainfall.
'The blockage has since been cleared and the issue resolved. Thank you to those who alerted us to the problem.”
