Shoalhaven motorists will soon experience safer journeys with speed zone
changes to be introduced next week.
A Transport for NSW spokesperson said a review of speed zones was carried out at
various locations at the request of Shoalhaven City Council in response to
community concerns.
“The review recommended changes to some existing speed limits due to increased
pedestrian and vehicle movement in the area,” the spokesperson said.
“As a result, the speed zone at four locations will be changed with the new speed
limits to take effect from 12 August 2023.”
The existing 90 km/h speed zone on Beach Road at Berry will be reduced to 80
km/h from 350 metres east of Agars Lane to Gerroa Road.
The new speed zone will come into effect on Saturday 12 August, weather permitting.
The existing 60 km/h speed zone on Old Southern Road at Nowra will be reduced to
50 km/h from 100 metres north of Killara Road to Princes Highway.
The new speed zone will come into effect on Monday 14 August, weather permitting.
The existing 100 km/h speed zone on Gannet Road at Nowra Hill will be reduced to
60 km/h.
The new speed zone will come into effect on Monday 14 August, weather
permitting.
The existing 100 km/h speed zone on Woncor Ave at Nowra Hill will be reduced to
60 km/h.
The new speed zone will come into effect on Wednesday 16 August,
