A community fighting to stop part of their much-loved local park being developed for a sewage pumping station will have their day in court today at the Civil Justice centre in Cardiff.
To coincide with the launch of the judicial review brought by the Llandaff North residents association, we've looked in detail at why Welsh Water wants to build a station to pump sewage in the historic Hailey Park green space and why the campaigners believe Cardiff council should have given it more scrutiny before approving it.
The court case is set to be heard at Cardiff Civil and Family Justice Centre, Park Street, on Thursday June 29 and Friday, June 30, after the residents association raised more than £11,000 to bring the case. Local residents, groups, councillors, MSs and an MP have all spoken out on on the controversial plans. One campaigner, Pendre Sims of Llandaff North Residents' Aossication, even staged his own rather unique protest - sitting on a toilet in the middle of the park.
