Auckland Transport say “it’s a reminder”
“The 50km roundel on the road is a reminder for people to slow down… and hence no signs”
Okay AT but I took a drive from Lion Rock Corner to this ‘reminder’ looking for a speed indication sign.
Below: Leaving Lion Rock corner near the entrance to Piha Domain. No 50km sign. Piha Village – no speed limit sign.
Below: Driving past the Art Gallery and Fire Station – No 50km sign. Heading up Seaview Road – no speed limit sign.
Below: Driving past Pendrell Road – No 50km sign. Heading up from the ‘Piha Lookout’ – no speed limit sign.
Below: Further up Piha Hill – No 50km sign. Heading Te Ahuahu turnoff. – no speed limit sign.
Here is the first indication that you’re in a 50km zone.
Not a sign – just ’roundel’ – Unbelievable !
Below: 50km sign on Te Ahuahu Road entrance but not for Glen Esk .
Just had a call from Auckland Transport – they are arranging a 50km sign at or near to the top of Piha Hill for traffic leaving Piha. Yay
