speed limit signs
isn't it about time the government looked into the practice of roading crews placing 30kph signs on the state highways. They seem to put them in place at the start and end of a days work. Regularly about a 2 kilometer stretch at a time. Oh for the days of the Ministry of Works. at least they would only have 70kph speed limits for the area that they were immediately working on and would uplift them when not working.
Isn't it illegal to leave signs up when not physically working on the road, unless no white lines repainted..
I see there are 70kph signs at the approach to the Waitaki river bridge.the so called patch on the road is no worse than the rest of SH1.
Ding-ding! Back for round six!

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
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!
