Wetlands Bulldozed: Coomera Connector 2 Environmental Application Expected Soon

  • I've been closely watching the progress of the Coomera Connector Stage 2 project between the Gold Coast and Brisbane. Original proposals included plans to completely bulldoze sensitive wetlands that were brought to my attention by community members at Eagleby.
    After the previous Estimates, meeting Minutes revealed that the Queensland Government wanted to advance the environmental approvals through a secret, non-public pathway rather than what's called a public environment report (PER).
    There are still huge environmental impacts from the proposed route, while a suitable alternative is available just a few kilometres away. I'll be watching for the imminent referral that will detail the full extent of these environmental impacts to the Eagleby community.

    A lot of big words to do whatever they want over this, and I don't see how any of it will be of benefit to ease traffic. Just give the service roads an upgrade to keep local traffic off the main highway, no thought was put into that when it was designed back then. And reduce the onramps after, most don't know how to merge properly.

    The problem with public servants making decisions on planning is they risk there future careers moves when making a poor planning decision .
    In every government body of every level consultants are employed to make these decisions. This costs time and makes a simple project costly.
    The answer would be to give immunity to public servants. This would give a massive productivity boost to the economy and free up this slow wheel of progress. It would also reduce expenses on all projects.
    The alternative would be to take all decisions away from government bodies and place it in the professional public sector with secondary auditors.

      So you want to give "immunity" to the likes of that bloke who states that it is he that "dictates" the planning decisions... No - Legislation SHOULD dictate the decision, and for that reason the idea of granting public servants immunity is reckless and absurd.

      ​@@rethinkscience8454 Hmmm. I am perfectly aware of what you are saying.... We all know what happens when decisions are left to the private sector - it may as well be known as the "privateer" sector. The solution is to make gov. transparent and accountable. That is something we can't make private operators do. Your "solution" only hands more power and money to you - no thanks. I'd prefer repairing the political system. But thanks for the offer.
