Headline: Lower speed limits Appleby Highway, Tasman District from 18 December
“Over the three years from 2015 to 2017, there were 12 crashes where eight people died and 12 people were seriously injured on these roads. Reducing the speed limits will improve safety, and help make those crashes that do happen survivable,” says Transport Agency Director Regional Relationships Jim Harland.
