THE boss of a major freight terminal says funding for a road upgrade will put Toowoomba on the map nationally as a significant transport and logistics hub.
The Queensland Government today announced $2.89 million in funding will go towards a planned upgrade to key infrastructure in the Toowoomba Enterprise Hub at Charlton.
The road upgrade, which includes an asphalt-surfaced, two-lane road, with provision to accommodate trunk public utility plant and other utility service infrastructure, will cost $6,779,700.
Freight Terminals chair John Dornbusch said his group was delighted to be partnering with the Queensland Government and Toowoomba Regional Council.
Council is matching the government’s funding and Freight Terminal is putting in $1 million for the Steger Road Infrastructure Enabling Project.
Mayor Paul Antonio said the upgrade was a turning point in the future of the transport and logistics hub. For the full article click here
