Road safety, rather than an attempt to create a state highway
or heavy traffic bypass "by stealth", was behind the Dunedin
City Council's move to spend $5.4 million upgrading Riccarton
Rd West, a Mosgiel hearing was told yesterday.
One of the longer-running battles between residents and the
Dunedin City Council is finally due to be thrashed out: East
Taieri homeowners are set to fight the city's plan to take
some of their land to allow an upgrade of Riccarton Rd.
