Chambers Flat can expect two years of disruptions which come hand-in-hand with progress.
The good news is that Chambers Flat Rd from Kings Way to Mt Lindesay Highway, will gain a $38.5 million upgrade over the period.
Money comes from the coffers of both Logan City Council and the Federal Government, and accounts for the bulk of this year’s $100 million kitty.
Another big road project will be an upgrade to the intersection of Rochedale and Priestdale roads at Priestdale. The $8.3 million project will be jointly funded with Brisbane City Council, which will also lead the design and construction components.
City Infrastructure chief Teresa Lane says a good portion of the road spend is to ensure there’s good drainage.
“Whether it’s a major road construction or something minor but important such as kerb and channel work, Logan residents are going to see a lot of improvements wherever they live,” Cr Lane said.
Major works include:
- $38.5 million over two years– Chambers Flat Rd from Kings Way to Mt Lindesay Hwy, Chambers Flat (jointly funded under the Federal Government’s Roads to Recovery Program)
- $32 million – City-wide pavement rehabilitation, asphalt and spray seal resurfacing
- $9 million – Stormwater drainage upgrades at Woodlands Dr catchment, Rochedale South with a further $11 million over the subsequent two years
- $5 million – Kerbing and stormwater drainage upgrades to streets in Jimboomba with further streets in future years
- $4.5 million – Scott Lane culvert replacement with a new concrete bridge, North Maclean (jointly funded under the Federal Government’s Bridge Renewal Program)
- $3 million – Construction of Doug White Dr (Stage 1), Park Ridge
- $1.5 million over two years – Intersection upgrade and signalisation of Browns Plains Rd, Campden St and Scrubby Creek Rd intersection, Browns Plains
