The Government maintains its road cone hotline has been worthwhile. 

The pilot, which encouraged the public to report excessive cone use, ends tomorrow, six months ahead of schedule. 

Site visits found 86% of work sites were already compliant. 

Workplace Relations Minister Brooke Van Velden told Heather du Plessis-Allan the hotline has found there are issues with the traffic management plans councils design. 

She says the people on the ground putting the cones out aren't the problem.
