Poll: Should the speed be reduced on the road from Christchurch to Akaroa?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours,

Canterbury’s “highest risk route” will be under the spotlight as the public are asked to give their views on the road’s current speed limits.

Between 2011 and 2020, 75 people were killed or suffered serious injuries on the road between Christchurch and Akaroa.

Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) is now seeking feedback from communities on the Banks Peninsula and Christchurch to hear their views on what the speed limits should be.

Do you think the speed should be reduced along SH 75/73?

People can provide feedback by visiting the NZTA website or emailing chchtoakaroaspeeds@nzta.govt.nz.

Drop-in sessions will also take place at:

Te Hapua Halswell Centre, July 1, 3–6pm

Little River School, July 6, 3–6pm

Tai Tapu Hotel, July 6, 10am–1pm

The Gaiety Hall, Akaroa, July 10, 11am–2pm
