At Sydney Olympic Park’s Brickpit, we delivered a specialised habitat project designed to protect and support local frog populations. Through our ecology restoration services, we created a functional and resilient habitat within this highly sensitive environment.

Method & Technique:

• Special Project
• Habitat Restoration

Project Outcomes:

In March and April 2024, our team delivered a specialised on-ground project at the Brickpit, focused on ecological protection and habitat support. The works involved the placement of six metal tanks within a rigid frame enclosure, expertly wrapped in taut, commercial-grade bird netting.

This design was carefully constructed to exclude medium to large birds while allowing frogs to freely enter and exit. Transporting the tanks from the Brickpit car park to the site, we arranged them on a level sand bed reinforced with coir logs and connected them via frog-accessible gabion pathways. The entire enclosure stands at approximately 2 metres high and was engineered with steel supports and lockable, bird-proof access doors.

Despite biosecurity restrictions and limited site access via a dirt track, our team ensured high standards in ecological restoration and wetland enhancement, contributing to a secure, functional habitat within this sensitive, sandstone-based environment.
