Currently crews are working along roadsides in Strathbogie Shire to make the access safe.

Their priority is safety, and ideally if they are falling dangerous trees, to leave them in the roadside corridor as habitat.

They can’t leave them all.  The volume of timber is just too great following the Longwood fires.  We are looking for properties where we can stockpile timber or mulch close at hand to the road.  We hope to re-purpose the hollows as habitat back into the landscape, and any suitable timber as furniture at a later date, funding dependent.  

If your property is on a sealed road we are really keen to hear from you immediately.  If your property is on a minor road, let us know you are interested. 

Please contact Marque Sheedon, Tree Project Officer at Strathbogie Shire Council on 5795 0000.
