The Great Western Expressway

Lachlan CMA’s “The Great Western Expressway” promotes the aims of the Biodiversity Fund Theme 1 strategy to expand the extent of native habitats in a fragmented landscape. The rural landscape of the western Lachlan Catchment is one of the most fragmented and cleared agricultural regions of Australia. This project will facilitate and further develop existing partnerships to implement biodiverse plantings of native mixed species to re-connect native ecosystems along the Conapaira Range. The improvement of connections between remnant native vegetation on public and private lands will facilitate strong capacity building to ensure the life of the project is far-reaching.
