Speed Limit Reviews – Waipu, Ruakaka, One Tree Point
WDC adopted the Recommendations Report, and it is now published on WDC’s website. We can see maps with the new speed limits in the appendices 1 and 2 (from page 59 onwards) and a summary of submissions and recommendations for individual roads and areas in section 7 (pages 40 to 58).
Northland Transportation Alliance staff are now preparing a programme to update signage and carry out required engineering works to support new speed limits and ensure that they are enforceable. Once the physical works programme has been prepared, WDC will make the required changes to the Speed Limits Bylaw with an operative date that coincides with the completion of required physical works.
Changes to the speed limits will be well advertised prior to implementation.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16.2% ... It is complicated
