Poll: What do you think the speed limit here should be?
Councillors have unanimously agreed to defer a decision on whether a controversial stretch of Cobham Dr should stay at 60kph or revert to 80kph.
The deferral by members of panel to a full council meeting on 26 June was so a bigger group of councillors could make the decision. A breather would also hopefully allow councillors to take account of a similar decision from NZ Transport Agency for an adjoining Cobham Dr stretch of SH1C.
