Speed limit review
Marlborough District Council will soon review speed limits on local roads across the region, through its local roads agency, Marlborough Roads.
There will be two stages of public consultation.
The first will be later this year and will gather the public’s views on road safety issues and speed limits, which will inform the writing of a draft speed bylaw that goes to the council for adoption in late 2019.
Then the formal speed bylaw will be consulted on in early 2020, before a final recommendation is presented to council.

So we want to hear what you think:

60.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.2% ... It is complicated
