The Woolworths Group announced it will no longer go ahead with a proposed Dan Murphy’s development after a review found insufficient attempts to engage with local Aboriginal communities.
Spokeswoman for the Bagot Aboriginal community, Helen Fejo-Frith, says she is thankful Woolworths listened with their heart to the Darwin community.
However, Larrakia traditional owner, Helen Secretary, says the decision is disappointing as the development was going to lead to vital fixes to road safety issues.
