Hundreds of people have taken to the streets of Sunbury to voice their disapproval at the proposed dumping of contaminated soil at a site in Bulla.
Protesters, many wearing ‘No Toxic Soil in Sunbury’ T-shirts and others carrying picket signs, gathered at the Village Green beside Sunbury Memorial at noon on Sunday.
Community members and local politicians addressed the crowd before the protestors made their way down Macedon Street before returning to the Village Green.
The Sunbury and Bulla communities have voiced their frustration at the Victorian government over a proposed relocation of contaminated soil from the West Gate Tunnel Project to a site on Sunbury Road in Bulla.
