A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

I was away for a time and on return thought the speed limit on Stout Street, from Roebuck Road to MacLean Street, had been increased from 50kmh to 70kmh. Apparently not, officially.

I am prepared to pay for installation of a speed camera at the corner of Hall and Stout Street (pointing up and down Stout Street), on the basis that I receive half of the speeding fines.

I will be doing a public service, providing revenue for the government (with a nice little earner for myself) and most importantly reducing traffic speeds back to normal and putting some idiot, dangerous drivers off the road.

Action is overdue. How about it traffic department?
