Greens call for Koala crossing as another koala hit on Appin Road

Wollongong Greens Councillor Cath Blakey is calling on the state government to invest in Koala crossing points, especially at Mallaty Creek which is the shortest crossing point between the Nepean and St. Georges River just near where this koala was hit.

“We need these crossings in place now, before any future road expansion or vegetation clearance occurs. The delay puts the current koala population at serious risk, and we need the koala crossings right now, otherwise there will be no koalas left to cross.”
