Fenton Street now 50 kph zone
24 November 2014
The speed limit along Fenton Street from Sala Street to Malfroy Road has been reduced from 60kph to 50kph.
This means the full stretch of Fenton Street, from Sala Street all the way through to the lake end of the road, is now 50kph.
The speed limit change is one of a number made recently by the Rotorua District Council following a public consultation programme. Reduced speeds on a number of roads across the district were in response to community concerns about traffic speeds and the associated safety risks to pedestrians, cyclists and motorists.
With the new speed limit now in place along Fenton Street, the council is urging motorists to moderate their speed accordingly .
