Russell Street School

Proposed changes

• Proposed permanent 30km/h on Tyndall Street, Rongopai Street from its intersection with Russell Street to its intersection with Heretaunga Street.
• Proposed permanent 30km/h Russell Street from Tremaine Avenue to ~50 metres south of its intersection of Rongopai Street.
• Proposed permanent 30km/h Heretaunga Street from its intersection with Tremaine Avenue to a point ~25 metres south of its intersection with Florence Avenue.

Reason for proposed change

Permanent 30km/h stretches include immediate streets outside school access. Stretch on Heretaunga Street extends to include the zebra crossing.

Covers the immediate streets around the school where there will be a high volume of pedestrians and pick-up/drop-off area. The average speed that people are travelling on these two roads is already less than 30km/h.
