  • PROGRESS REPORT - 23 JULY, 2020 Funding of Priorities Identified and Advocated Through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP)
    PROGRESS REPORT - 23 JULY, 2020 Funding of Priorities Identified and Advocated through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP) Page 1 INTRODUCTION TO THE INLAND QUEENSLAND ROADS ACTION PROJECT (IQ-RAP) The IQ-RAP was developed through consultation and engagement with local governments and industry peak bodies. Regional Roads Forums were convened in December 2013 in Longreach and in August 2014 in Mount Isa with participants coming from across inland Queensland. Regional Development Australia Townsville and North West Queensland (RDA) was requested and agreed to be the Secretariat and raised funds from partners in 2015. Funding support was forthcoming from 33 local governments that covered 82% of Queensland’s area, RACQ and 5 Regional Development Australia Committees. A Project Steering Committee was formed and consultants the Harrison Infrastructure Group (HIG) were engaged. In February, 2016 the Inland Queensland Roads Action Plan was launched. This was followed by extensive advocacy to the Australian and Queensland Governments and peak industry bodies through to mid-2018. In mid-2017 IQ-RAP partners agreed to extend the project and update the Plan into a new Inland Queensland Road Network Strategy, taking into account the funding commitments that had been made to priorities identified in 2016, carrying over the priorities that still required funding and updating the Multi- Criteria Analysis with new information. 28 local governments, 5 Regional Development Australia Committees and RACQ provided on-going funding support. Further extensive advocacy was undertaken. This document summarises the funding that has been secured for priorities identified and advocated through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP) and the two major reports that were prepared by Harrison Infrastructure Group (HIG) and Regional Development Australia Townsville and North West Queensland (RDA).

    The Honourable Vaughan Johnson MLA Minister for Transport and Main Roads Member for Gregory October 1996 Dear Minister I am pleased to present the Main Roads 1995/96 Annual Report. It shows clearly that although Main Roads is a new government agency, it has risen quickly to the challenge of managing one of Queensland's biggest assets - the road network. Since our creation in February 1996, we have been quick to identify and build on the best from Queensland Transport and the former Main Roads. We have set about building closer and more productive relationships with local governments, and we have recognised the need to continue to promote public consultation as a critical element in developing a road network that Queenslanders value. I believe the staff who form this organisation bring with them dedication and a wide range of skills that help place Main Roads at the forefront of road network planning, management and service delivery, and we will quickly gain status as a leading government agency. From the former Main Roads and through Queensland Transport, we have held a reputation for engineering and technical excellence. In today's society where competition is fierce, the community is more discerning and community expectations of government are heightened, we recognise that we must continue to pursue excellence in our dealings with the public and commercial businesses. With the creation of Main Roads, there is now an opportunity to give clearer focus to developing a road network that further contributes to economic and social prosperity, while providing Queensland communities with a more flexible and responsive organisation.
