Hello. There area lot of things that can cause this. The first thing I would check is the thermostat. If the thermostat is not opening right then this will occur. If the thermostat is fine then it may have a weak water pump, a restriction in the radiator, or even a blown head gasket. I would test for a head gasket issue if all of the other components test fine.
