Limited Licence Lawyer Feilding

Limited licence application preparation for clients in Feilding and the wider Manawatu-Whanganui region.

If you live in Feilding or the Manawatu district and have been disqualified or suspended, a limited licence may allow you to keep working.

Feilding transport

While there is a limited bus service to Palmerston North, it does not run frequently enough to be a reliable commuting option. Rural areas of the Manawatu have no transport at all.

Hardship in the Manawatu

The agricultural economy means many workers must drive to rural properties. There is no other way to get to a dairy farm, saleyard, or rural construction site.

Public transport in Feilding

Feilding has a limited bus connection to Palmerston North, but the service runs infrequently. The surrounding Manawatu district — including Rongotea, Halcombe, and Kimbolton — has no public transport. Most rural residents rely entirely on driving.

Employment and industry

The Manawatu district is one of New Zealand's most productive farming areas. Dairy farming, sheep and beef farming, and crop growing dominate. Feilding's saleyards are among the largest in the Southern Hemisphere. Many workers drive to farms and rural properties across the district. The construction and trades sector services the agricultural community.

Frequently asked questions — Feilding

Farming in a rural area with no public transport is one of the clearest hardship situations. If you must drive to reach your farm and there is no alternative, this strongly supports a limited licence application.
