    Waka Kotahi says speed limit changes to Waikato's expressway are a win for drivers

    Waka Kotahi says speed limit changes to Waikato's expressway are a win for drivers


    The section between Hampton Downs and Tamahere will have a 110 kilometre an hour speed limit from mid July.

    Spokesperson David Spears says it'll shorten journeys.

    He says the road is a world class piece of engineering, and the change won't sacrifice safety.
