I remember the first time I spotted a koala scurrying across the lush greenery of Moore. It was a breathtaking sight, and it reminded me of how lucky I am to live in such a beautiful area rich with wildlife. However, every day the survival of these creatures grows more precarious as development pressures and road traffic increase. That's why I'm calling for the expansion of the 60km speed limit zone in Moore to better protect the local wildlife that makes this area so unique.

Currently, the 60km zone doesn't cover enough of the crucial habitats that so many species rely on. This inadequate protection leaves countless animals at risk of vehicle collisions and habitat disruption. According to the Australian Wildlife Conservancy, road accidents are one of the leading causes of mortality for native animals, contributing to the decline of precious species like the eastern grey kangaroo, wombats, and echidnas.

By extending the 60km speed limit further, we can significantly reduce the number of wildlife fatalities. Not only would this measure help preserve the ecological balance in Moore, but it would also ensure the safety of motorists by reducing the likelihood of accidents involving animals.

We urge local council and transportation authorities to take immediate action to extend the 60km zone. Implementing this change is an achievable step forward, aligning with broader conservation efforts and ensuring that Moore remains a haven for its wildlife for generations to come.

Please join me in this crucial effort to protect the beautiful animals of Moore by signing this petition and encouraging local authorities to act quickly. Together, we can make a difference and secure a safer, more sustainable future for our precious wildlife and community.
