I see that Martin Parkes commented on the Greerton road changes as being not aimed at addressing traffic congestion, which was common across the city (Local News, February 23).
He's absolutely correct. Like most of the roading changes made by the council, they seem to be aimed at increasing traffic congestion. Greerton is only one example.
Welcome Bay is another, with Welcome Bay Lane still being closed to traffic. The incompetence of this Council is breathtaking.
And let's not even get started on the "green space" at Mount Maunganui and the Bella Vista homes debacle.
