I have assessed your request, as it stands your request would take considerable time to collate the information and we may not be able to locate information on all speed humps installed. I suggest refining your request to include a defined period, eg. 1 Jan 2023 – 1 Jan 2024.
Please let me know if this is acceptable.

Dear BUS: Official Information,
That is fine
However if you can provide total number across Wellington without other details that would be good and just focus on last year
I just want to see how much money has been wasted on things the ratepayer doesn’t want and also how council doesn’t follow their own rules to install these things whilst you can’t fund community pools
Just more mismanagement
Yours sincerely,
Chris McCashin

Dear BUS: Official Information,
Just a follow up on this - I understand per NZTA guidelines that speed humps cannot be installed on National Roads, Regional Roads, Arterial Roads and Primary Collector Roads.
For every speed hump installed can you tell me what type of road they have been installed on - also given WCC have installed speedhumps on roads with the above definition(s) can you tell me what approval processes were gone through and how WCC circumvented those processes? Ie how has NZTA allowed this to occur and / or do council approve these projects themselves despite them going against National Guidelines?
Yours sincerely,
Chris McCashin
