Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor Study
Landsborough to Nambour Rail project
Improvement of the North Coast Line between Landsborough and Nambour is one of the many infrastructure projects listed in the Queensland Government’s South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program 2007 – 2026 (SEQIPP) which outlines the government’s priorities for regionally significant infrastructure.
With a projected population of more than 473,000 people by 2026 generating an additional 500,000 trips each day, the Sunshine Coast is now at a stage where public transport must play a larger role in the region.
The Landsborough to Nambour Rail Project will include construction of a double track railway along a predominantly new route, with room for extra tracks if required. The project will improve the efficiency, service frequency, operating speeds and reliability of trains, and cater for the increasing demand for rail services in the corridor caused by population and freight transport growth.
Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor Study
The Landsborough to Nambour Rail Corridor Study is an early phase of the Landsborough to Nambour Rail Project. The study will include comprehensive community consultation to assist in the identification of a preferred route and an Environmental Impact Statement.
