Speed limit review
To improve safety and provide consistency across the roading network in Banks Peninsula, we are proposing speed limit changes on a number of roads, taking into account the safe and appropriate speed.The roads have been divided into areas and we welcome your feedback on any or all of the roads identified for a speed limit change. Once consultation has closed, the Banks Peninsula Community Board will receive a staff report including consultation feedback, and then make their recommendation to Council.
Setting speed limits
The Christchurch City Council's Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 allows Council to set and change speed limits on roads within Christchurch in accordance with the Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2017.
