Project description

The Green Line is a biodiversity corridor project, which aims to protect and enhance the biodiversity and habitat connectivity of the former Koroit to Minhamite Railway Line in western Victoria. This linear reserve stretches 37 kilometres, encompassing four listed endangered Ecological Vegetation Classes, as well as numerous rare and endangered species. The project continues to enhance and protect the natural and cultural assets of The Green Line. By controlling weeds the Basalt to Bay Landcare Network has reduced the weed incursions into the native Grassland and Grassy Woodland areas. The re-release of the K5 rabbit virus added an active control to the ecology of the area, and gave the project area strong consequential benefits to adjoining properties, including conservation reserves.
