Speed to drop on Porirua roads
Speed limits on eight rural Porirua roads should be nearly halved, the councillors have decided.
Harris Road, Moonshine Road, Flightys Road, Murphys Road, Mulhern Road, Bradey Road, Belmont Road and Coroglen Rise, off Airlie Road, should all drop from 100km/h to 60km/h, councillors decided earlier this month.
The proposed changes will now go to NZTA for approval.

So we want to hear what you think:
