Concerned: The State of Hamilton's Roads and Sidewalks

Maureen from Tamahere

Has anyone else noticed how incredibly filthy the roads and sidewalks have become recently, especially when entering and exiting Hamilton from the South?

There's an alarming amount of debris and trash around the off-ramp toward Airport Road and its surroundings. And not even one trash bin on either of these pedestrian paths.

Who is responsible for this, and why haven't we seen any campaigns from councils to address the littering?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A speed limit drop from 80kph to 60kph for a controversial and key section of Wairere Dr near The Base looks set for sign-off at Wednesday’s city council meeting.

If okayed by councillors and then subsequently approved by the NZ Transport Agency, the move will end what’s been an ongoing controversy over the limit reduction.
