New speed limit for Queenstown’s Tucker Beach Road intersection
With the new school term underway, traffic volumes at Queenstown’s Tucker Beach Road/ SH6 intersection have increased.
The intersection is currently being reconstructed for safety reasons by the NZ Transport Agency with additional underground pipe relocation needed to service nearby subdivisions for the Queenstown Lakes District Council.
“After Labour Weekend, a 30 km/ hour speed limit will be put in place for everyone’s safety through this intersection - road users including cyclists, and road crews,” says NZ Transport Agency Senior Project Manager Phil Dowsett.
“The reduced speed limit is unlikely to have a major impact on journey times for most road users. However, we encourage people to allow extra time for their journey because of the increased volumes of traffic during early morning and late afternoon peak travel times.” Find out more here
