Re: ‘A Ventelou's letter A Ploy for Highway Robbery' (The Weekend Sun, April 2). I'd suggest Western Bay of Plenty councillors are adopting the strategy developed by the Tauranga City Council when the Route K toll road was shunned by all and sundry and is still being avoided by all that can - trucks and cars.

Council has recently reduced the speed limit on Moffat Rd from 80km/hr to 60km/hr but the trucks are still using it and driving at a steady 60km/hr.

The other route to town is Cameron Rd and trucks are still using it despite there being twice as many traffic lights as there was a couple of years ago.

So watch out Te Puke this will be the next move, when the trucks refuse to use the new toll road. Traffic lights instead of roundabouts.
