Developed in 1984 as part of Victoria’s 150thanniversary celebration, Westgate Park is located along the eastern banks of the Yarra River under the Westgate Bridge and offers spectacular views to the mouth of the Yarra and the city skyline. Having undergone many transformations before emerging as one of Melbourne’s most visible parks, Westgate Park is a vibrant example of how wasteland can become a flourishing ecological and recreational wetland environment. The focus of this project will be on habitat restoration that may include spreading mulch, removing weeds, plant maintenance and litter collection. These activities aim to protect and enhance the habitat for a large number of birds that have begun using Westgate Park since wildlife corridors and biodiversity links have been developed.
