contents Let $δ(p)$ tend to zero arbitrarily slowly as $p\to\infty$. We exhibit an explicit set $\mathcal{S}$ of primes $p$, defined in terms of simple functions of the prime factors of $p-1$, for which the least primitive root of $p$ is $\le p^{1/4-δ(p)}$ for all $p\in \mathcal{S}$, where $\#\{p\leq x: p\in \mathcal{S}\} \sim π(x)$ as $x\to\infty$.
