Mapleton council has registered their objection to a move by Wellington County to divert truck traffic away from Fergus on Highway 6 to Wellington Road 7 and 17.
Mapleton council discussed a motion which was presented by councilor Dennis Craven saying the township is not in favour of the alternate route which is already being used with signs installed to divert truck traffic.
Council also heard from a group called Concerned Citizens of Wellington 7 and 17.
The group is looking to the township to support them in calling Wellington County to reconsider the alternate route which directs traffic away from Highway 6 through Fergus to Wellington Roads 7 and 17 through Alma.
Council accepted the groups presentation for information.
