Last-ditch efforts are being made to protect Aboriginal cultural heritage sites on the mid-north coast, where Elders maintain a proposed road work will destroy thousands of years of history.
Dunghutti Elder, James Gurri Dungay, has been fighting for 16-years to stop the tarring of a 12-kilometre road to Point Plomer campground, a coastal site located between Port Macquarie and Kempsey.
On Friday, the federal Department for Environment gave the green light for the works to re-commence.
Mr Dungay has travelled to Sydney, demanding a meeting with the New South Wales Premier to inform her of the potential cultural losses if the devlopment is allowed to go forward.
