Editor's Notes
Proposal to extend the 30km/hr urban speed zone in the central city area of Dunedin. The HIA looked at the effects, both positive and negative, on the following determinants of health and well-being: physical activity, social capital and personal safety. Potential effects were considered for three priority groups: the elderly, youth and the general pedestrian population.
