## Resource

Canterbury’s roads are getting safer—speed limits are dropping on key state highways like SH1 near Rolleston and Amberley, thanks to community input and safety upgrades. Changes include cuts from 100km/h to 80km/h and 80km/h to 60km/h, with signs expected up by late 2026. Drivers, residents, and safety experts all weighed in during consultations, leading to tweaks like expanded limits in Temuka. Until the new signs go up, old limits still apply—so stay alert and watch for updates. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
