The new Minister of Transport has opened the door for public consultation on at least some of the speed limit changes the government said would be automatic.

Announcing the changes to speed limits last week, Transport Minister Chris Bishop issued two lists - one containing 49 stretches of state highway where there would be public consultation on whether to up the limits and one of 38 areas that would automatically return to higher speed limits.

Could you not respond and say how you think all of it should be 80? Then it's on the record and if enough people do it they might consider it or grow the 80km/h sections. They seem to be starting to listen to criticism.
