Three critical infrastructure projects, set to be fast-tracked through the $2 billion Residential Activation Fund (RAF), are expected to unlock a further 1,400 homes along Bundaberg’s coastline.
The Queensland Government has announced that $23.2 million under the RAF will support the construction of three projects along the Coral Coast.
The RAF will fully-fund $22.2 million worth of trunk infrastructure required to unlock the Coral Cove Ocean Estate project which will increase land supply and provide much-needed homes on the Bundaberg coast.
It will also deliver a $691,459 boost towards a sewer rising main upgrade on Poinciana Drive in Innes Park and a $332,766 boost towards the Poinciana Drive and Back Windemere Rd intersection upgrade.
Queensland Deputy Premier and Minister for State Development, Infrastructure and Planning, Jarrod Bleijie, said that the RAF was set to unlock thousands of new homes across Queensland.
“The Queensland Government’s landmark $2 billion Residential Activation Fund is delivering for the Bundaberg region, unlocking much-needed housing sooner and easing the housing crisis,” Bleijie said.
“This $23.2 million investment along the Coral Coast will give more Queenslanders a place to call home.”
