Community engagement
During August and September 2019, we asked the public for feedback on what is important to the community when reviewing the speed limit along State Highway 8 (SH8) through Tekapo and also Burkes Pass.
We used the feedback provided and technical information gathered to propose a new speed limit for Burkes Pass and formally consulted on this proposal.
The recommendation for Tekapo is still being worked through.
Feedback has now closed.
