Save Our Spur!

Forest & Bird Upper Hutt

Forest & Bird Upper Hutt - Save Our Hills - Silverstream Railway Heritage Railway invites you to join the fight to Save Our Spur!

The Silverstream Spur, an area of undeveloped public land containing pine forest and regenerating native forest, is in danger of being literally given away for private development.

Come along to learn about why we think it is important to keep the Spur in public ownership, what you should know about the development proposal and what you can do to save your Spur.

Tuesday 6th July 7pm - 8:30pm, Silverstream School Hall.
