    Christchurch City Council's urgently fixing a confusing speed limit sign mix-up

    Christchurch City Council's urgently fixing a confusing speed limit sign mix-up


    There are two different speed limits displayed on either side of the road on St Albans' Westminster Street.

    On one side, motorists are told to slow down to 40 kilometres per hour, while on the other, the limit is 50.

    Transport Operations Manager Stephen Wright says the road maintenance team's been asked to promptly remedy the situation, now that it's been brought to their attention.
