An animal sanctuary north of Brisbane has received a road upgrade thanks to the state government’s charity infrastructure fund and more than 40,000 petition signatures.
The Farm Animal Rescue in Dayboro were told last year by Department of Transport and Main Roads they would have to pay for a $300,000 road upgrade or not be able to receive visitors.
A petition led to the government funding the road upgrade, which has now been completed and opened along with a new adoption clinic at the sanctuary.
