Queensland draft infrastructure plan released with no new projects

INFRASTRUCTURE Minister Jackie Trad has unveiled the Government’s draft state infrastructure plan, which contains no previously unannounced major projects.

The State Government describes the document as taking a “long-term view of infrastructure planning” and as being a “blueprint to prioritise and deliver projects that foster economic growth and promote community wellbeing across the state”.

Ms Trad said: “This is an exciting opportunity for Queensland, for local communities, for the industry to hop on board and have a look at some excellent projects that they can get behind, that they can mobilise their workforce for and deliver infrastructure for Queensland.”

The plan details the state’s infrastructure needs over the coming years, as well as “five to 15-year opportunities”.

Queensland’s population, currently about five million, is expected to reach seven million by 2036 and 10 million by 2061. For the full article click here
