Work began last week on a new neighbourhood shopping centre for Logan Reserve.
The centre is expected to take 12 months to build and will include 15 shops and services.
They’ll include a Woolworths, proposed medical precinct and alfresco dining precinct.
The multi-million-dollar development is at 450-458 Chambers Flat Road, on the corner of Chambers Flat Road and Park Ridge Road.
With space of 4000 square metres, the Woolworths development is expected to create significant employment opportunities including 140 retail jobs on completion.
Woolworths Logan Reserve Neighbourhood Shopping Centre, as it will be known, will be a 4-Star Green Star development, rated by the Green Building Council of Australia, with sustainability features set to include solar panels and rainwater detention tanks, a Woolworths representative said.
The new retail precinct is expected to open at the end of 2023.
“This development of the Logan Reserve Neighbourhood Shopping Centre will continue our strong record of economic contribution to Queensland, including in the Logan area, and create hundreds of local jobs,” Woolworths regional development manager Savanah Powell said.
“The Woolworths Supermarket at the heart of the development will be designed as a neighbourhood food store providing a great shopping experience for our customers, a great fresh offer and the convenience they are looking for.
“We’re ready to deliver Logan Reserve residents, and the broader community, a modern convenient and sustainable neighbourhood shopping centre that will meet their needs well into the future.
“We look forward to welcoming customers into our store and centre towards the end of 2023.”
Member for Forde Bert van Manen, who attended the sod turning, said:Â “This supermarket and shopping precinct will provide additional retail choice for Logan Reserve as well as creating employment opportunities for the local residents during its construction and into the future.”
