Environmental Stewardship Award
WA
Submission Overview
The Thomas Street Biodiversity Corridor project transformed a degraded road median into a thriving ecological corridor, enhancing urban cooling, biodiversity, and community connection. Spanning 3.32 km, it introduced over 28,000 native plants, guided by Indigenous knowledge and incorporating culturally significant bush tucker species. Developed with Kings Park specialists, it follows best-practice sustainability principles. Strong community involvement shaped the design, fostering stewardship and inspiring native landscaping in urban spaces.
