Roads and Maritime Services, Local Land Services and Soil Conservation Service have commenced a
project that will use large timbers salvaged from the Woolgoolga to Ballina Pacific Highway upgrade to rehabilitate riverbank erosion along the Clarence River.
The four year project will help manage erosion along nearly 4.5km of riverbank through the placement of approximately 400 large rootballs and logs and rock revetment. These remediation earthworks works will be complimented by a revegetation and site maintenance program of more than 55,000 trees.
