This creek is mostly rural with minor urban centres and some forested headwaters. Key management issues for this waterway include loss of native vegetation, bed and bank erosion, water quality deterioration, weeds, fish barriers and maintaining stream flows. The Yellingbo State Nature Reserve, which extends along several kilometres of the creek and its tributaries, supports the largest remaining population of the critically endangered Helmeted Honeyeater.
Improvement works: Recent works have included willow removal and replanting, fencing and weed control.
