Proposed speed changes.
The justification for the increase from 100 to 110kph from Rolleston to Curletts rd is mostly around improving efficiency.
I assumed, (yes, a very dangerous thing to do), that this was meaning that Trucks would increase in speed as well, which would have been a safety issue for me, but was the only logical reason for justifying the change on efficiency grounds.
However, a section off the Gvt site says "The 90km/h speed limit for heavy vehicles and towing vehicles applies on 110km/h roads. Where there are two lanes in each direction, other drivers can safely and easily pass slower-moving vehicles"
If the trucks can not speed up, how are efficiencies going to be made when only smaller vehicles, that can save 2 mins on each trip and Trucks zero?
Am I missing something?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
