Speed limit changes around Auckland - Phase Two
Consultation has concluded
Auckland Transport (AT) is proposing to set new permanent speed limits on approximately 800 roads around Auckland – predominantly around schools and in South Auckland.
If approved, these changes will be made by amendment to the Speed Limits Bylaw and come into force in mid-2022 - dependent on public feedback, AT Board approval and implementation considerations.
We are legally obligated to improve the safety of these roads.
Making no change is not an option.
Your feedback can potentially influence:
- The new speed limit we implement.
- The section of road we make the change to.
- Other safety measures to improve safety.
- Please note, there is limited scope to provide road safety engineering measures on these roads. Any requests for new measures will be assessed and only those that meet prioritisation criteria will be considered.
Your feedback is important to us
You live and drive on these roads and have local knowledge which can help us to make sure we get things right.
