Speed limits around schools to be lowered

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Christchurch’s rangatahi (children) will have a safer time getting to and from school after city councillors voted to cut speed limits on nearly 2000 streets.

Drivers travelling in school zones can expect a limit of 30kph or 40kph in surrounding neighbourhoods.

Councillors voted nine to three in favour of the reductions as part of a speed management plan for the city discussed at a meeting on Wednesday.

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
