North Coast Line railway map

Welcome

Welcome the Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor Study website. The site contains information about the upgrade of the Landsborough to Nambour section of the North Coast Line and will be updated regularly to give you access to the latest information about the progress of the Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor.

Community provides valuable feedback on township options

Recent consultation on the Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor Study has provided significant feedback to Queensland Transport for inclusion in the Environmental Impact Statement.

Comments received include feedback about maintaining the cultural value and character of the rail stations and townships, minimising noise and retaining the visual amenity of the area and reducing disturbance to natural habitat for the Mooloolah River crossing and Dularcha National Park. Other suggestions included re-using rail land not required in the future upgrade and the merits and issues associated with the open level crossings.

Queensland Transport is currently developing solutions to the issues and comments presented, which will be part of the Environmental Impact Statement, due for release in early 2009.

A public comment period will follow the release of the project’s Environmental Impact Statement and is the next opportunity for the community to provide their comments on the project.
