Tree work in Mudgeeraba
A fauna corridor and a creek that rises
Hinterland Regional Park is part of a known fauna corridor with sightings of healthy koalas, and a City of Gold Coast offset project there is planting koala habitat trees and endemic species. Blocks on that corridor are checked before a tree comes out.
The City told people in Mudgeeraba to prepare for moderate flooding of Mudgeeraba Creek in May 2026, with the creek near the Pacific Motorway still rising at the time.
Ground beside a creek that has been under water stays soft for days afterwards, and machinery waits for it rather than tearing up the lawn.

Mudgeeraba questions
Protected trees, and who looks after the park
Are there protected trees in the suburb itself?
Yes, and they are specific. The two persimmon trees in Laver Family Park are on the Gold Coast Local Heritage Register, with a protected area covering the trees plus a 5 m radius around each tree. Nothing inside that circle is a private job.
Who looks after the trees on the regional park side of the fence?
The council manages it, and a bushcare group works in it. Hinterland Regional Park is bordered by Mudgeeraba Creek, Bonogin Creek and Hardys Road, and the group restoring it runs environmental weed control and revegetation along those boundaries. Your own side is quoted normally.
