As part of the ongoing Appin Road upgrade project, Lendlease has introduced vital measures to protect local wildlife, including the construction of exclusion fencing designed to keep koalas and other animals safe.
This innovative solution forms a key part of the project’s commitment to environmental conservation while continuing significant infrastructure development.
The exclusion fencing is designed to prevent koalas from wandering into traffic areas, ensuring their safety as they move through the landscape. The fencing, combined with installing wildlife underpasses, allows animals to safely navigate around construction zones, preserving the natural habitat and ensuring the ongoing protection of endangered species like the koala.
For property developers, planners, and homeowners, this project highlights the importance of considering wildlife-friendly solutions in areas with local animal populations.
Exclusion fencing offers a practical way to manage human-wildlife conflict while maintaining safety and promoting biodiversity.
As wildlife conservation efforts grow in importance, the Appin Road project sets an excellent example of how modern infrastructure can integrate seamlessly with environmental stewardship.
