Default Vic Roads Speed Limit Review

i just saw this in my local paper.
seems interesting.

Quote:
The Victorian Speed Limit Review aims to make speed limits simpler, more consistent and easier to follow.

The Review provides an opportunity for Victorian road users to bring speed related issues to the attention of the policy-makers so that speed limits and their use can be improved.

VicRoads is now seeking submissions on the following topics:

Routes with large numbers of speed zone changes
Opportunities to reduce the number of speed limit changes
Aspects of School Speed Zones, including layout and location, times of operation and days of operation
Strip shopping centre times
Speed limits in town centres
Use and application of advisory speed limits
Minimum length of speed zones
Consistency of speed limits under similar conditions


Contact details
Submissions can be made by email or mail.

VIC simply doing as NSW roads staff have been directed too by its new GovCo.

I expect the ARR 25 'rural default' to drop 80-90km/h, in time. Doesn't matter but, because individual roads can be signposted 100-130 or (//).
