Another fatal crash and they'll still do nothing until someone's kid dies. Classic NZTA, all talk no action.
even the locals know it's dodgy. how many reports do they need?
driven that bridge a thousand times. it's fine if you're not a moron doing 120 in the rain. slower speeds won't fix idiots.
speed limit isn't the problem, the bridge is literally narrower than a cycle lane in town. widen it or put a damn barrier up.
yeah nah it's the idiots going too fast for conditions. same everywhere.
Condolences to the family. But honestly, how many more warnings do we need? Every year someone dies there.

bro just put up one of those flexi bollards and call it a day... or better yet, a giant inflatable cushion 😂
getting real tired of ppl making jokes after someone dies. have some respect eh.
Social media comments aren't an engineering report. But maybe listen to the people who actually use it every day? Just a thought.
Slow down and pay attention, it's not rocket science. RIP to the victim though, awful stuff.
lol sorry didn't mean it that way, just sick of them not fixing the real problem. my bad.
Widening the bridge would cost less than the cleanups and court cases ffs. Do your job @NZTA
facts. money's always there for consultants but not for actual safety.
