Safer roads, safer speeds Hamilton
We want you to help us work out a plan to manage speeds which feel unsafe or inappropriate in our city. It’s about making sure we have the right speeds on the right roads – so whether you’re on foot, bike or in the car they’re safe for everyone.
Click here to answer some questions we’d love your thoughts on. There’s also a map to show us where in Hamilton you think speeds aren’t right or it feels unsafe, and tell us the reason why. In each of the questions you can comment and vote for the ideas you like. This is open until 7 December 2018.
We’re also going to be out and about talking with you.

Did you submit on the city council's long-term plan?
Hamiltonians have spoken out on the council’s budget plans with the city’s massive proposed rates hike a lightning rod for residents already struggling with rising costs.
With more than 3000 submissions landing on the Hamilton City Council’s Draft Long Term Plan the hot topic is unsurprisingly the proposed 19.9% rise, which itself lands in a cost of living crisis and limping economy.
Have you heard about this Hamilton petition?
A group of Hamilton business owners have started a petition to stop the council from hiking up rates and passing the cost of what they say are unpopular projects on to residents.
It frustrates longtime residents Tom Andrews, a former roading engineer who owns Classics Museum and has property interests and Jo Reeder, to see Hamiltonians facing large bills.
