Friends battle for park trees
Road pushed through 'under false urgency'

A battle has broken out over a new road to be built through native bush at the Bowl of Brooklands.

The road will improve access to the TSB Bank Bowl of Brooklands from the park's racecourse end but in the way are numerous large native trees, including several more than a century old.
