— NEW PROJECT
“Keep the Wakehurst Parkway Clean” Project
We dream of a clean Wakehurst Parkway! To make it happen, we’re asking Northern Beaches Council and the Department of Transport to let us run a Community Clean-Up. Yes, it means one road closure for a few hours—but it keeps everyone safe while we collect rubbish.
We’ve already started mapping the mess—my mum bravely walked the Parkway photographing the litter!
With the amazing HOT uMap team, we’ve turned it into the map below.
Every tag? Another piece of rubbish spotted and recorded!
