A cycle path in Puketapu that is obstructed by a new speed limit sign will be realigned further from the road.
Residents have noticed that the sign indicating the 50km/h speed limit through Puketapu Village blocks a significant proportion of that section of the Puketapu Loop Hawke's Bay Trail.
A Hastings District Council spokesperson said the path at that location will be shifted towards the fence to maintain the normal path width, with work set to start within two weeks.
They said the signs would also be raised by a metre, and cones have been placed around them in the meantime to make users of the trail aware of the hazard.
These new speed limit signs were installed at the beginning of March, following the recent speed limits review, with the intent to slow traffic through Puketapu Village.
