Redland City Council has adopted a $151.68 million capital expenditure program that includes a significant investment in essential infrastructure such as roads, waste and wastewater.
This funding commitment in the 2025–2026 Budget will ensure the city keeps pace with population growth now and into the future.
Almost one-third of this year’s capital expenditure program – or $48.27 million – will go towards water, waste and wastewater projects to ensure Council maintains its high standard of service delivery to the community.
This includes more than $28 million for wastewater projects such as the design and construction of a sewer trunk network from Double Jump Road to service a new residential development, and the construction of a new gravity main and pump station on Kinross Road.
The Budget has allocated $10.4 million for three landfill remediation projects, including works at Judy Holt Park.
Significant funding has also been set aside for roads and traffic infrastructure.
More than $43 million has be allocated to road resurfacing, reconstruction and maintenance, and upgrade projects.
These include an upgrade to Kinross Road at Thornlands, and progressing the green seal program on the Southern Moreton Bay Islands.
Council is also investing $17.75 million in transport infrastructure, including progressing the delivery of a boat ramp, parking, bus stops, parks and roads within the Weinam Creek Priority Development Area.
