Pipeline Protest March in Canton on July 15th

From July 14th to 18th, hundreds of Massachusetts residents will be marching along the routes of Spectra’s proposed fracked gas pipeline projects all the way to the steps of the Massachusetts State House, to demand that Governor Baker and the state legislature oppose new gas pipelines and the pipeline tax.

The public is encouraged to show their support all along the route as the marchers pass, and at the stops and the rallies, and anyone is welcome to join the march for whatever distance they can. For more information about this important march, and to confirm the final street routes and stop times, please visit www.PeopleOverPipelines.org (/route and /schedule), as there may be last minute changes.

The march protesting the Spectra Access Northeast Q1 Loop (Bellingham through Canton) will begin in Medway on Thursday, July 14th, and go through Millis, Norfolk, Walpole, and Sharon for overnight. Leaving from Sharon on Friday morning, after passing through Stoughton, the marchers will proceed up Rebecca Rd., right onto Walford Park Dr., left onto Pleasant St., and left onto Sherman St. Rest, Refresh, and RALLY at Canton Public Library at 1:45 p.m. The march continues west on Sherman St., across Canton Junction to Wattles St., left on Chapman St., right on White Sisters Way, left on Pear Tree Drive, and right on Neponset St. towards Norwood.
