Teven wetlands a road to rehabilitation for endangered species
Wetlands to rehabilitate and protect threatened flora and fauna have started at Teven as part of the Woolgoolga to Ballina Pacific Highway upgrade biodiversity offset program.
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormack said the project was testament to how the Australian and New South Wales Governments were working together to build vital road infrastructure while minimising the environmental footprint.
“The Pacific Highway upgrade we delivered last December was the largest road infrastructure project in regional Australia and since work to duplicate the stretch from Hexham to the Queensland border began in 1996, we’ve seen the number of fatalities reduced by about 75 per cent,” the Deputy Prime Minister said.
