Queensland aviation strategy

On 19 August 2002, the government released the Queensland aviation strategy. It details the objectives and key actions of the following three plans, which address significant issues and opportunities for aviation in Queensland.

1. Queensland Commercial and Tourism Aviation Plan

This plan is structured around five priority areas that will drive airline route development in the state: improved access, regulatory and strategic policy, research and analysis, partnership development and government leadership and coordination. Please contact the Department of Tourism, Racing and Fair Trading or Tourism Queensland* for information on this plan.

2. Queensland Aerospace Industry Development Plan

This plan sets out the key objectives required to ensure the continued rapid expansion of the local aerospace industry and the establishment of Queensland as an important aviation hub for the Asia-Pacific region. Please contact the Department of State Development, Trade and Innovation for further information.

3. Queensland Airports and Regulated Air Transport Plan

Queensland Transport prepared this plan which addresses the delivery of air transport infrastructure and services to remote and regional communities in Queensland to ensure essential access to a range of business, educational, medical and social opportunities. It outlines policies for airport grants, the regulation and/or subsidy of air services and development in the vicinity of certain airports.
