Avon habitat improvement through weeds of national significance mitigation in six priority riparian sites

The project focuses on the Avon River and seeks to protect and enhance its significant ecological and cultural values. Weed infestations will be destroyed to prevent further degradation of the ecosystem; infill planting will revegetate and stabilise degraded areas and improve connectivity; debris will be removed from the river channel, banks and islands to improve water quality and habitat values; sites of Indigenous cultural significance will be recognised and respected; and maintenance of walk tracks will encourage people to learn about and appreciate the environment and ways in which we can help to protect it.
