Reference • TR 62-26 TKKM o Ngā Mokopuna – Variable Speed Limit Scope Amendment
Location – where we propose to make the change![]()
Marine Parade, Falkirk Avenue, Forres Street, and Inglis Street from 8:20am-9:10am and 2:40pm-3:40pm School Days Only![]()
Ventnor Street: The amendment is to include variable speed 30km/hr 8:20am-
9:10am and 2:40pm-3:40pm School Days Only on Ventnor Street. The previous 50km/hr signs have now been removed.![]()
What is the change • The proposed change is to is remove the location the 50km/hr signs originally approved on 28th August 2025 (TR82-25) on Ventnor Street.![]()
• After further consultation, it was found that the school have an additional school gate on Ventnor Street which means this needs to be part of the variable speed limit zone, operating at 30 km/hr speed during school pick up and drop off hours. Therefore, this proposal seeks to update the zone to include Ventnor Street.![]()

• By moving the sign locations, this also requires an update to the legal description database which is included in this traffic resolution.
• For more details, please refer to original and amended plans included below.![]()
Why is the change
being made![]()
• This change is an amendment to the initial changes required by the Land
Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2024.![]()
Impact • Pedestrian/vehicle impact – Improves pedestrian safety by slowing down vehicle speed around schools during drop-off and pick up times. In the event of

Reference • TR61-26 Brussels Street, Miramar- Formalise Give Way control
Location – where we propose to make the change![]()
• Brussels Street, Miramar – Outside no. 1 to 76.![]()
What we’d like to do • Formalise existing give way controls along Brussels Street and install missing signs and road markings.![]()
Why we are proposing the change • At the intersections of Brussels Street with Tauhinu Road/Park Road and
Para Street historically those vehicles on Brussels Street must yield to vehicles travelling on the roads identified above.
• Upon inspection it has been found that these intersections, while
containing some elements that are required for a give way control, such as signs and road markings, are each missing at least one element equired to make it complaint with NZTA legislation and have not been formalised in our database.![]()
• Therefore, this traffic resolution is to formalise the de-facto give way controls along Brussels Street which are in place and to bring them up to national standard by installing the missing elements that have been identified.![]()
• To improve safety and consistency across the roading network we are proposing to bring the existing intersections up to standard regarding give way controls and have them agreed upon by council.
