POLICE dragged residents out of a Sydney Park protest camp at 3am today so WestCONnex contractors working for the private Sydney Motorway Corporation (SMC) could set up a construction site, and begin work to destroy thousands of trees in the park.

HUNDREDS of people attended a snap rally in Sydney Park this morning to protest the Baird Government’s planned destruction of hundreds of trees there for the WestCONnex tollway.

On Sunday, 14th August 2016, a capacity crowd packed the Sydney Park Pavilion for the WestCONnex: Driving Sydney to Destruction to hear Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore, Dr Mehreen Faruqui, Jonathan Moylan, Lorrie Graham and Janet Dandy-Ward (WAG) highlight the terrible impacts of WestCONnex on our community and on the environment.

HUNDREDS of people are expected to attend the WestCONnex Action Group (WAG)’s latest event, WestCONnex: Driving Sydney to Destruction, in Sydney Park on Sunday.

On Thursday 11 August, Janet Dandy-Ward from WestCONnex Action Group spoke to Colin Hesse on Radio Skid Row about our upcoming event, WestCONnex: Driving Sydney to Destruction.

HUNDREDS of residents across the WestCONnex route came to WestCONnex Action Group (WAG)’s UPROOTED family picnic and tree-wrapping events on Sunday to protest the destruction that will be caused if the $16.8 billion toll road goes ahead.

RESIDENTS from across the WestCONnex route will come together on Sunday 6 December for UPROOTED, a family picnic and tree-wrapping event to highlight the community destruction the $16.8 billion toll road would cause.

THE WestCONnex project was wholly rejected by locals who filled the Enmore Theatre to capacity.

LOCALS will finally get the opportunity for answers from the WestCONnex Delivery Authority tonight as they hold an “information night” at the Enmore Theatre.
