Pursuant to subclause 3.4(1) of Land Transport Rule: Traffic Control Devices 2004 (“the Rule”) and a delegation from the NZ Transport Agency, I, Glenn Bunting, Network Manager, hereby authorise the installation and maintenance of alternative signs for variable speed limits at rural schools:

(b) in the form and layout set out in Schedule 2;

(c) at the locations stated in Schedule 3;

(d) for the period specified in Schedule 4; and

(e) subject to the terms and conditions detailed in Schedule 5.

The alternative signs shall be used for the purpose of evaluating their use and the trial shall be called the “Rural schools variable speed limit (turning vehicle hazard) trial.”

Schedule 1—Purpose of Trial

The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of:

(a) variable speed limit signs to manage the side-impact crash risk at rural schools where there is a concentration of vehicles making turning manoeuvres before and after school;

(b) supplementary “School” warning signs below variable speed limit signs, as an alternative to signs specified in Schedule 1 of the Rule, to explain the reason for a reduced speed limit; and

(c) fixed signs, installed on minor roads intersecting with the variable speed limit, specifying the times of operation of the variable speed limit, as an alternative to signs specified in Schedule 1 of the Rule.
