Poll: What do you want the speed limit to be here?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Traffic will soon be going 20kph faster through one of Hamilton’s worst crash spots, unless a speed limit reversal is reversed.

The “very dangerous” Cobham Drive intersection with Grey St - near Hamilton Gardens - sits in the middle of a stretch of road where the 60kph speed limit is due to be reversed to 80kph in July.

What's one highway or road that needs attention?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.

If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.

Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!

Poll: Do you think this block should be overturned?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

State housing provider Kāinga Ora wants a court to overturn planning restrictions that prevent the building of multi-storey state homes in heritage housing areas like Hamilton East.

Currently development in those zones is restricted by Hamilton City Council’s controversial Plan Change 9.
