Alison Faraday of NEAG and Toadnuts talks to John Maytham about why they believe such a road will degrade the wetlands.
The Noordhoek Environmental Action Group (NEAG) is taking the City of Cape Town to court in a bid to halt the building of the Houmoed Phase 1 Extension road that it believes will result in the extinction of the Western Cape Leopard Toad and progressively empty the Noordhoek Wetland of its wildlife.
The proposed road will link Noordhoek Main Road with Kommetjie Road and will run along the south-eastern side of the wetlands.
