Hoppers Crossing LCRP Landscaping Project

About the Hoppers Crossing Level Crossing Removal Project (LCRP) landscaping project
As part of the Western Program Alliance (WPA), Wamarra engaged ecoDynamics VIC Landscaping team to undertake the landscaping work on the Hoppers Crossing LCRP.
Under the WPA Hoppers LCRP plan, it was stipulated that for each tree removed, two new trees would be planted in its place. To fulfil this commitment, our landscaping team worked closely with our Victorian Nursery to propagate a diverse selection of plants, shrubs, and grasses, ensuring we met the environmental and aesthetic goals of the level crossing removal plan.
Our Victorian Nursery grew the majority of the plants needed for the project, and outsourced Swale for the hybrid varieties. At both ends of the pedestrian overpass, we designed and landscaped the new plaza areas, incorporating a diverse mix of native an exotic plant species. This section included drought-tolerant plants such as Lomandra, Poa and Carex. These species were chosen for their ability to thrive in local conditions and their contribution to the visual appeal of the surrounding area.
