Salisbury to Beaudesert Rail Planning Report Released
The Australian and Queensland governments have released the planning summary report for the Salisbury to Beaudesert rail corridor. Both governments, having invested $10 million each under the Inland Rail Bilateral Agreement, will now move into further planning stages to protect the future rail corridor.
The study identified heavy rail as the best option to meet the growing passenger and freight needs of the corridor, which runs through some of South East Queensland’s fastest-growing areas, including the Greater Flagstone Priority Development Area.
The next phase will involve a corridor protection study, with community consultation to begin in 2025.
