Speed consultation on the TEL Toll Road
The Transport Agency is currently consulting on the proposal to introduce a speed limit of 110km/h on the Tauranga Eastern Link Toll Road (SH2) and the Cambridge section of the Waikato Expressway (SH1).
The consultation period closes 5pm this Thursday, 26 October 2017. To have your say, please fill in the consultation form.
Both the Tauranga Eastern Link Toll Road and the Cambridge section of the Waikato Expressway have been designed to the necessary standards to safely support 110km/h travel speeds.
These are some of the best roads in New Zealand. The speed limit will only be increased to 110km/h on roads which can support higher travel speeds without compromising safety.
The feedback received will be considered when the decision is being made, and if implemented, the new speed limit will be in operation on these two roads before the end of 2017.
Other roads that will be considered in the future include the additional sections of the Waikato Expressway (SH1), the Upper Harbour Highway (SH18) in Auckland, and Kapiti Expressway (SH1) near Wellington.
