The Tekapo-Twizel Highway had a blanket speed reduction of 50 kilometres an hour placed on Tuesday.
It was after 24 people were injured following crashes in fog and black ice recently.
NZTA's Mark Pinner says the road will likely go back to its normal 100 kilometres an hour limit from 10am - due to the clear, sunny weather forecast.
