Taieri, could become the new State Highway 87 - clearing
heavy vehicles from Mosgiel's main street - but only if the
Dunedin City Council helps pay for it.

supporting modifications to a plan for the $5.4 million
upgrade of Riccarton Rd West, in East Taieri, has been
labelled a "fiasco" by a critic of the proposal.
