Overview

The New Zealand Transport Agency (TA) is seeking information on a National Speed Limit Register as set out in the Overview of Requirements.

An RCA (Road Controlling Authority) must establish and maintain a register of speed limits that records all speed limits (except temporary speed limits) for the roads under its jurisdiction. This register must be available for inspection by members of the public, at reasonable times, on request.

Speed limit registers are managed differently by the 68 Road Control Authorities using different tools with varying levels of sophistication. This leads to administrative overhead, inaccuracy and safety issues. Speed limit data is difficult to locate, and there is no single national view.

A decentralised solution that relies on each RCA to maintain and publish authoritative data (to a central register/data service operated by TA) has been proposed. The Transport Agency therefore aims to introduce a nationwide single source of truth for speed limits (the National Speed Limit Register or NRSL). The NRSL is required to meet the objectives of the Safer Journey’s third Action Plan and Safer Roads Initiative.
