Lower speeds for Shirley and Scarborough streets

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The Christchurch City Council has approved changes to reduce speed limits from 50kph to 40kph on 28 streets in Shirley and nine streets on and around Scarborough Hill.

“The feedback we received during consultation showed good support for these changes with a number of residents saying they already travel below the current speed limit," council transport operations manager Stephen Wright said.

“Implementing these changes will better reflect the street environment and help people unfamiliar with these areas to understand the safe and appropriate speed to travel.”

Speeds in Shirley would be monitored to see if further traffic calming measures were needed.

REDZONE DOGS - GROUP DOG WALKS
Hi guys,
I’ve started a Facebook group called Redzone Dogs. It’s a great community where we join and organise dog walks in and around the Redzone. It’s a great way to socialise your dog, feel safer when out and about late at night, and meet locals.
