We are undertaking a road catchment-based rolling review of speed limits, focusing on roads where better speed management will reduce serious injuries and fatal crashes. Why are we doing this? Speed limits on many of our roads were set when limits were restricted to 50 km/h in urban areas, 100 km/h in most other places and 70 km/h on a few semi-urban roads. As a result, New speed limits came into force on more than 60 Council-administered roads between Kaeo and Ohaeawai on 25 January. The Mayor and Councillors set new speeds on roads in May 2020 after seeking community feedback on a Speed Limits Bylaw 2019. our speed limits do not always match the road environment.
