Re: ‘Council purchases Cameron Rd building for new indoor courts’ page 3, The Weekend Sun, Friday, February 9 edition.

I am saddened to see that The Warehouse has sold its central city location on Cameron Rd – as with this store, it didn’t matter what direction you were coming from into the city – this was an easy stop for quick supplies of a large range of items.

It seems even The Warehouse – one of New Zealand’s biggest retailers – cannot withstand the diabolical mess that is Cameron Rd thanks to Tauranga City Council and their planners’ out-of-touch plans to improve this key arterial rouse in our city.

I hope The Warehouse is planning on another central city location store – but looking at how the city is now – ie. Dead – I somehow doubt it.
