Environmental group fights to save Holden test track

The Southern Brown Bandicoot and other potentially endangered species could stand in the way of the sale of the Holden test track in Lang Lang. Environmentalists have mounted a campaign to have the land preserved to protect its unique native wildlife and habitat. Holden’s parent company General Motors has owned the 877-hectare/2167-acre facility near the town of Lang Lang – about 90km south-east of Melbourne – since 1957.
