Dear Official Correspondence,
Yes that is the correct sign. I have received an email from a customer liaison from Auckland Transport and that is what they called it, a driver feedback sign.
Section taken from said customer Liaison email to me:
"As part of our response to the concerns raised, Auckland Transport has commissioned the installation of driver feedback signs on Rosier Road. These signs provide real-time speed information to motorists and are intended to encourage safer driving behaviour. The installation has been approved, and we expect the work to be completed by the end of August 2025."
Yes, it looks like the image you sent.
Yours sincerely,
Tawa Latham
