That’s the view of Orange City Council infrastructure policy committee chair Councillor Glenn Taylor.
Cr Taylor urged council this week to consider the radical measure that would return trucks to travelling through the middle of the city to convince the State Government to take ownership of the contentious bypass.

“I think it is the only way we can ram home the situation.”
