Poll: What do you want the speed limit to be here?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Traffic will soon be going 20kph faster through one of Hamilton’s worst crash spots, unless a speed limit reversal is reversed.

The “very dangerous” Cobham Drive intersection with Grey St - near Hamilton Gardens - sits in the middle of a stretch of road where the 60kph speed limit is due to be reversed to 80kph in July.

What do you want the speed limit to be here? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
