Should speed limits be lowered to make roads safe?
Eight options for lowering speed limits across Nelson-Tasman are heading out for consultation after a series of meetings by both local councils. The proposed changes could see urban roads with limits of 30kph outside schools, and 40kph in school neighbourhoods, some town centres, and streets without separated cycle facilities. In rural areas, it could mean 30 to 60kph outside schools, 60kph in residential areas, and 80kph limits for high risk roads. What's your view - do speed limits need to drop?

Respite care when you need it
From rehabilitation after a hospital stay, to a little extra support, whether it’s for a few nights or a few weeks - respite care provides temporary care in a range of circumstances.
If you still live in your own home, a short stay at one of our care centres could be a welcome break from your usual routine.
Our respite care is offered at rest home-level care, hospital and specialist dementia care. In some circumstances, we may be able to offer you respite care in a serviced apartment.
If you've been thinking about moving to a Ryman care centre, spending time with us in respite care is a great way for you to experience the lifestyle in our villages before making your decision.
