Watch your speed

A new radar-based vehicle speed awareness system is now up and running in Papakura.
Funded by Papakura District Council and installed at six key locations throughout the district, the cameras read the speed of oncoming traffic and flash up a visual warning – either the speed of the vehicle or, if the speed is in excess of the limit for the area, a message to slow down.

The new speed display signs are all at or in the vicinity of schools in the district, helping to raise awareness among motorists. They are on the approach to Ardmore School, at the speed “black spot” on Walters Road, and will also be installed on Manuroa Road, Cosgrave Road, Opaheke Road and on Great South Road at Drury.

The project was instigated and followed through by Papakura District Council road safety staff.

Above, Papakura District Council Road Safety Officer Donna Dick, PDC Roading Engineer Alan Peddie and 3M’s Alan Parker monitor traffic behaviour outside Ardmore School as the advisory sign is brought on-line.
