Kenyan conservationists oppose plans to build railway line across parkpublished at 11:08 British Summer Time 16 September 2016
A group of conservationists and residents living around the Nairobi National Park, in Kenya's capital, Nairobi, held a demonstration against plans to use part of the park for an ongoing railway project.
The Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) project is a $3bn (£2.2bn ) flagship scheme launched by President Uhuru Kenyatta, which is set to run from the coastal city of Mombasa to Nairobi covering some 482km (300 miles).
The government recently decided that a bridge would be constructed on parts of the park so that wildlife is not disturbed.
The demonstrators say that they were not consulted before the decision was made and that they were "sold out" by the management of Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS).
They marched to the KWS offices to present a petition and alternative route proposals.
