Or, stupidly enough, if for some reason you've come down off the Centenary
Highway via
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/144077977#map=17/-27.66335/152.73924,
through the traffic lights, then taken the on ramp we're talking about to
go back up onto the Highway, your speed would be 60 - 60 - 100 as there's a
60 sign on that off-ramp. So you'd, quite legally, have 2 different speed
limits on that stretch of road!

Thanks
