Fauna movement infrastructure

Image of fauna exclusion fencing and a rope bridge

Fauna movement infrastructure includes fauna bridges, underpasses, refuge poles, and exclusion fencing. The infrastructure aims to:

  • provide native wildlife safer access to our parks, reserves and corridors
  • improve public safety by reducing the risk of wildlife entering the road corridor
  • reduce the likelihood of collisions with wild animals
  • re-establish key ecological linkages once severed by roads.

Council has installed:

  • 47 canopy bridges, 6 of these in collaboration with the Department of Transport and Main Roads
  • 48 fauna underpasses
  • 127 LED vehicle-activated signs
  • 158 road pavement stencils for wildlife, koala zones and more
  • 288 fauna escape poles
  • 31 fauna refuge poles
  • more than 21 kilometres of fauna exclusion fencing
  • 16 Fauna Escape Hatches.

This infrastructure is delivered by our Green Infrastructure Network Delivery Program.

Fauna Escape Hatch trial

City of Moreton Bay is testing a new Fauna Escape Hatch to improve wildlife safety. It provides a one-way exit for wildlife, steering them away from our roads. This is an Australian first-in-network trial of the device. We have purchased and installed 16 hatches across 7 Council-managed roads.

This hatch design complements koala escape poles to help them find safe bushland habitats. The trial is based on recent studies showing that ground-level infrastructure can help keep wildlife safe.
