Information
The Barker Inlet Wetlands form part of a series of constructed wetlands including Greenfields and Connector Wetlands at Salisbury plus the Range and Magazine Creek Wetlands at Gillman.
The combined area of these wetlands is 337 hectares, making them the largest constructed wetlands in Australia.
The freshwater ponds vary in depth up to 2.5m -having a variety of depths and shoreline conditions enables a wide diversity of habitat at the wetland.
To improve stormwater quality the water needs to remain in the wetlands for approximately ten days.
Construction cost: $10 million
