Roadside Vegetation
Last modified: July 10, 2006 - 1:50 PM
In 1997 Council approved and adopted Parkes Shire Council's Roadside Management Plan. The Plan was based on the 1995/96 assessment of remnant roadside vegetation existing on Shire roadsides.
The assessment categorised the roadsides into high, medium or low values depending on the quality of remnant vegetation existing on the roadside. The location of rare, endangered or uncommon species was also identified. This information was transferred to a Shire map and included in the Plan. Roadside Management policies were formulated, taking into account the information provided by the roadside vegetation assessment. One of the major aims of the Plan was to conserve and properly manage the valuable remnant vegetation still existing on Shire roadsides. Further information regarding the Roadside Management Plan can be obtained by contacting Council's Environmental Officer on 02 6861 2343
