Over the next 6 weeks there is an opportunity to have your say on proposals to lower speed limits on some select sections of Northland state highways.

The proposals are for:

• SH1 Moerewa to Kawakawa
• SH10 Kaingaroa north and south
• SH12 Opononi to Ōmāpere.

The proposed speed limit changes are in response to strong community feedback that current speed limits aren’t suitable for these stretches of road.

NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) is asking for your feedback - your input will help shape final decisions on changing the speed limits.

Visit the NZTA webpage for more information and to have your say via the online survey portal www.nzta.govt.nz/northland-speed-reviews

Consultation closes at 5pm on Tuesday 24 March 2026.

Information on proposed speed limit changes is in the table below:
