Have your say
To improve safety, we’re proposing speed limit changes to a number of local roads and near some schools.
As our city has grown, some of the higher speed limits are no longer appropriate with the higher density of housing, vehicle volumes and the mix of cyclists and pedestrians using the streets.
The proposed changes are to sections of Ohauiti Road, Welcome Bay Road, Kaitemako Road, Oropi Road, Pyes Pa Road, Totara Street, Parton Road, Tara Road, Domain Road, Maranui Street and Papamoa Beach Road.
The proposed 40km/h variable speed locations are around the school zones of Matua Primary School, Tauranga Intermediate School, Aquinas College, Golden Sands Primary School and Taumata School.
This is the first stage of a city-wide speed limit review, and we want to know if you support the proposed changes, and/or if you think we’ve got them right. Submissions close 27 November 2020.
