flag Serious crashes cost Auckland $195M yearly, with slower speeds reducing delays and boosting productivity.

flag A new study finds crash-related delays cost Auckland $195 million annually, with single serious crashes causing $26,000–$37,000 in lost time and multi-vehicle motorway crashes costing $1.4–$3.5 million. flag The analysis, using GPS and traffic data, shows higher speeds increase crash frequency and severity, leading to longer clearance times and greater congestion. flag Despite claims that faster speeds boost productivity, evidence indicates lower speeds reduce fatalities and improve economic outcomes by minimizing delays and disruptions. flag The findings suggest safer, more reliable travel yields greater productivity than higher speed limits.
