Poll: What do you reckon: stick with the lower limit or put it back up?
Lower speed limits may stick around on two well-used Hamilton routes, despite a Government-ordered reversal.
The rule change requires councils to reverse speed reductions made since 2019 - but Hamilton City Council staff propose keeping the lower limits on a piece of Cobham Dr, heading from the CBD to Melville, and on Ruakura road.
