Why are speed limits being reduced/decreased on regional roads?
The state of our national roads has improved significantly in recent years. Generally speaking, our regional and local roads are of a slightly lower standard than our national roads. Therefore, it is reasonable that the speed limits for national roads are set at a higher level than the speed limits for regional and local roads. It is considered that a maximum speed limit of 80 Km/h represents the best match for regional and local roads from a safety perspective.
