More than 60 wetlands are located along EastLink to treat water run-off from the motorway. These wetlands help maintain healthy waterways and provide a valuable habitat for local fauna. Any water that goes back into local waterways must meet strict water quality performance requirements.

Some of the bigger wetlands have created new recreational areas for residents and feature boardwalks, shelter areas and playgrounds.

A significant wetland is located at Oakwood Park in Noble Park, next to the Princes Highway interchange. Plantings at this wetland include native and exotic trees, including Algerian oak trees which reflect the history of the area.
