The city centre's new 30km/h speed limit starts this Monday October 29.

The speed limit will apply between First Avenue and McLean St, and between Cameron Rd and the waterfront. Cameron Rd will remain at 50km/h.

The introduction of a temporary speed limit is a result of the significant growth and development happening in the city centre.

Tauranga City Council is creating one consistent speed limit to help simplify construction sign requirements and to keep things simple for people who are driving and safer for people who are walking and biking.

The 30km/h speed will run as a trial for the first year, and then the council will review. The trial has been approved under the code of practice for temporary traffic management. If the change is to be made permanent, there will be a formal consultation process.
