| Which option do you prefer? |
Option 2: Retain the current 80km/h speed limit, do not change speed limit
|
| Please tell us why? |
It is a main thoroughfare for people travelling (and trucks) from the wider Waikato regions into Hamilton for work. It will cause more congestion therefore more accidents.
A walk bridge although more expensive would be the more practical solution and do less harm to the safety of people. This should have been included in the proposal when council agreed to build one subdivision on either side of a main road! |
| Do you think any other physical changes are required to support the proposed speed limit change? |
No, it should not be changed in anyway except a bridge
|
| How do you travel through the area? |
Drive
|
| What do you use Te Rapa Road north for? |
It's a local road close to my house, Travelling north bound/south bound, Travelling to/from work, Take children to/from school, Local shopping area
|
| Are you giving feedback on behalf of an organisation? |
