Te Rapa Road speed limit change

Option 1: Reduce the speed limit from 80km/h to 60km/h

The environment of this segment of the road network will, as Te Awa evolves, become increasingly residential in nature. In addition, the commercial node on the corner of Te Rapa/Hutchinson generates slowing and turning vehicles. The future installation of signals further slows vehicles coming off the higher speed environment of SH1C. It makes perfect sense to reduce the speed limit to 60 kph from the roundabout south. (In fact, I'm not sure why the very competent traffic engineers in Council could not simply make the decision without the need for a length and presumably somewhat costly public consultation...)
