the neighbouring City of Cockburn has become the first West Australian council to build a new road out of recycled plastic.
About 40,000 single use plastic bags collected by supermarkets across Australia were melted into an asphalt mix used to pave a laneway in Port Coogee.

I do like the rubbish sock!
