Some Masterton streets to possibly get lower speed limits. Your thoughts?

Masterton District Council is starting a conversation with residents about traffic speeds in and around Masterton, as the first stage of a review of speed limits.
A paper to the Council’s meeting on Wednesday 25 September marks the start of a six-month process to review speeds on a range of roads.
The review, pending Council decision, will focus on priority areas, primarily around schools, high-pedestrian zones, and roads in places where there has been growth and a change in land use.
The Council has developed proposed speed reductions, including reducing the speed limit to 30km/h on and around Queen Street, and in the Kuripuni and Landsdowne business areas.
Variable speed limits are suggested for roads near schools, with the current 50km/h limit proposed to be reduced to 40km/h during peak periods when pupils are arriving or leaving school.
There are also suggested speed reductions in areas such as Upper Plain, and Castlepoint and Riversdale.
The initial speed reductions are based on community feedback and NZTA advice, including its Safer Speeds review. The Council seeks to understand whether the initial proposals align with community and stakeholder expectations.
Once feedback has been received, a formal consultation process will be carried out before any changes are made.
The review is likely to expand to other roads in the district in 2020/21 as part of a New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) regional speed review programme involving all three Wairarapa district councils and the Wairarapa Road Safety Council.
The Council has received a number of requests from the community to lower the speed limit on State Highway 2, north and south of Masterton.
This road is managed by NZTA and is likely to form part of the Wairarapa regional speed review. To highlight the need to urgently review these sections, the Council will also make a decision on whether to formally ask NZTA to review these sections now, independent of the regional review, in conjunction with MDC’s stage 1 review.

Teeth and gums and the whole oral cavity are an area that if neglected, maltreated, and "taken for granted" will invariably end up causing pain, tooth loss, bone loss and if diseased, have links to various "body health" issues.

Dental decay can cause tooth loss, swelling of the face, pain, sleep loss, and overall a wee bit of misery.
Gum disease in a minor form can cause bad breath, bleeding gums, pain, "looking long in the tooth".
Gum disease in a major form have links to diabetes, heart disease, lung conditions, and strokes, also premature birth.
Most of these dental conditions can be caught early - x-rays, check-ups, a filling or two and some regular clean ups. Just like a Warrant of fitness for the car, but even better, as you have to keep your current model (yourself for 80-90 years) or more.
For more information give us a call, come in and see us, or get going to a dentist near you.

Looking forward to hearing from you in the future.

The hygienist usually will scale and polish your teeth, removing build ups of plaque, tartar, and calculus, along with some surface stains. Hygienists also use pressured water to flush bacteria out from underneath the gum line, to prevent build-up of decay-causing bacteria along the roots of the teeth.

In your appointment, the hygienist can talk to you about your at home oral hygiene routine, and what methods and products you can employ in order to achieve the best results. The hygienist can also instruct you on the impact your life style (such as diet, smoking habits, etc.) has on your teeth, and offer solutions to improve your current oral condition.
