| Which option do you prefer? |
Option 2: Retain the current 80km/h speed limit, do not change speed limit
|
| Please tell us why? |
1. General confusion results when speed changes between 60km/hr and 80km/hr for short distances. I think it is dangerous to increase the speed back to 80km/hr just before the roundabouts crossing 1C ( heading north).
2. I disagree that Option 2 is more dangerous for pedestrians because the pedestrian crossing is going to be signalised so all vehicles will be stopped. |
| Do you think any other physical changes are required to support the proposed speed limit change? |
Has consideration to the implications of having the pedestrian crossing so close to the roundabout?
Would it be safer for the bus stop to be located down Hutchinson Road - access to and from the Te Rapa Road roundabout should be easy for buses. |
