Bridge Upgrades in Conondale National Park

Native Foresters was commissioned by QPWS to conduct preliminary assessments of the fauna and flora species occurring within the footprint of proposed bridge upgrade works at Jimna-Bellthorpe Road and Bundaroo Creek bridge, with a particular focus on EVNT listed species.

These projects involved:

  • Identification of fauna and flora in the footprint of proposed works.
  • Identification of hollow-bearing habitat trees with diameter at breast height over 300mm.
  • Assessment of the vegetation communities present on site.
  • Identification of EVNT listed flora species occurring on the site or within the sites 100 metre buffer zone.
  • Identification of key fauna and flora species interactions including Bell Miner Associated Dieback.
  • Water quality monitoring before and after construction.

Upon finding a Southern Myotis bat colony in the bridge at Bundaroo Creek, Native Foresters provided for ongoing species management, impact mitigation, and relocation of the colony prior to works.
