I am advised:
Roads and Maritime Services put the following measures in place to advise
motorists of the change in speed limit from 70 kilometres per hour to 60
kilometres per hour:
- 12 portable Variable Message Signs along Thomas Street, Newcastle Road and
Griffiths Road for 25 days in the lead up to and after the change in speed
limit.
- 27 speed zone signs installed westbound to indicate the 60 kilometres per
hour speed limit and pavement numerals at ten locations.
- 23 speed zone signs installed eastbound to indicate the 60 kilometres per
hour speed limit and pavement numerals at seven locations.
Roads and Maritime also issued a media release on 11 March 2018, and the
Centre for Road Safety distributed an email update to subscribers. There was
also coverage in local newspapers, on local radio stations, and on social
media.
