  • Australia's Sunbelt Migration: the Recent Growth of Brisbane and the Moreton Bay Region
    Australia's Sunbelt Migration: The Recent Growth of Brisbane and The Moreton Bay Region Patrick Mullins INTRODUCTION The most significant contemporary change in Australian regional development has been the growth of the relatively underdeveloped states of Queensland and Western Australia, on the one hand, and the relative decline "of the spatial core of Australian capitalism, New South Wales and Victoria, on the other. The former are developing as a result of inflows of foreign capital for the exploitation and export of mineral reserves, while the ebb in New South Wales and victoria is a consequence of the decline in the early 1970s of Australia's manufacturing industry. Yet the development of Queensland and Western Australia is not simply a consequence of mineral expropriation since additional processes have operated. It is the pur­ pose of this paper to analyse the other major element involved in the" expansion" of one of these two marginal states: Queensland. The second and largely independent impetus to Queensland's development revolves around the rapid population growth of the dominant southeastern corner of the state; that is, the Moreton Region, comprising mainly metropolitan Brisbane, as well as the Gold Coast, 60 kilometres south, and the towns of the Sunshine Coast stretch­ ing 100 kilometres north. The rate of population growth in the Moreton Region during the 1960s and 1970s has been faster than Queensland and Australia as a whole, and Brisbane has grown faster over the same period than almost all major metropolitan centres. Other parts of the region, particularly the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast towns of Caloundra and Maroochydore/Mooloolaba, have experienced even faster growth, with the Gold Coast, for instance, doubling its population between 1954 and 1966 and then again, to over 100,000, between 1966 and 1976.

  • Suburb Snapshot KALLANGUR QLD 4053
    Suburb Snapshot KALLANGUR QLD 4053 The suburb of Kallangur is set within the Moreton Bay Region of Queensland and is an urban / semi-urban area 24 km north of Brisbane. Kallangur is bounded by the locality of Narangba in the north, the Bruce Highway in the east, Fresh Water Creek, Bunbury Street, Duffield Road, the suburb of Murrumba Downs and Bickle Road in the east, the North Pine River in the south and the railway line in the west. The population in this area has continued to increase and recent development has been in response to the general housing demand in the northern growth corridor. Locals say it is a beautiful suburb, very community minded with fetes and community events on all year round. Schools are within walking distance of the newest estates and there are many corner shops and food outlets and a small shopping centre is in the town centre. There are various health care and pet care facilities. Large shopping centres are serviced by a good public transport system with rail and buses. They say their suburb is improving all the time and is a good, affordable suburb which is great for families. 1 | P a g e Transport The Region is served by the Bruce Highway, the D'Aguilar Highway and the Brisbane-Caboolture railway line making it simple to commute to the Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast. Residents of Kallangur will have even more transport options for work and recreation. The Kallangur Bypass, also referred to as the Petrie to Mango Hill transport corridor, is a proposed infrastructure project to alleviate traffic congestion in this area.

  • Analysis of Road Crashes at Roundabouts in Toowoomba
    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Health, Engineering and Sciences Analysis of Road Crashes at Roundabouts in Toowoomba A dissertation submitted by Megan Richardson in fulfilment of the requirements of ENG4111 and 4112 Research Project towards the degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil) Submitted October, 2016 ABSTRACT Every year, road crashes cost Australia an estimated $27 billion in additional to the devastating social impacts these crashes have on the community. Toowoomba’s road network has a significant number of roundabouts with approximately one roundabout for every two signalised intersections; with more roundabouts being constructed every year. The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the safety performance at roundabouts in Toowoomba to re-examine the contribution that geometric features of the poorer performing roundabouts have in severity and frequency of road crashes. A combination of two road safety methodologies were utilised to rank the top 10 worst performing roundabouts in Toowoomba. By combining the two methods more variables were able to be considered in the ranking process; the Critical Crash Rate method considered crashes with respect to traffic volume and the Relative Severity Index method used costs per crash type considering the costs of a crash based on a potential severity. The methods were subsequently combined using scores and weighting factors. The crash investigations, road safety audits and geometric property investigations conducted at the subject roundabouts identified that the most significant crash contributory factors were high entry speeds and reduced sight distance upon approach to the roundabout. The observed high entry speeds were most commonly associated with entry path radii that were too large as well as inadequate deflection through the roundabout.

ISBN-10: 0-9876055-0-X ISBN-13: 978-0-9876055-0-4 Aboriginal Camps and “Villages” in Southeast Queensland Tim O’Rourke University of Queensland In the early nineteenth century, European accounts of Southeast Queensland occasionally refer to larger Aboriginal camps as “villages”. Predominantly in coastal locations, the reported clusters of well-thatched domical structures had the appearance of permanent settlements. Elsewhere in the early contact period, and across geographically diverse regions of the continent, Aboriginal camps with certain morphological and architectural characteristics were labelled “villages” by European explorers and settlers. In the Encyclopaedia of Australian Architecture, Paul Memmott’s entry on Aboriginal architecture includes a description of semi- permanent camps under the subheading “Village architecture.” This paper analyses the relatively sparse archival records of nineteenth century Aboriginal camps and settlement patterns along the coastal edge of Southeast Queensland. These data are compared with the settlement patterns of Aboriginal groups in northeastern Queensland, also characterized by semi-sedentary campsites, but where later and different contact histories yield a more comprehensive picture of the built environment.

    Driving Test Cheat Sheet Caboolture Department of Transport and Main Roads Customer Service Centre Address: Aerodrome Rd & Piper Street, Caboolture QLD 4510, Australia Phone: +61 13 23 80 ​ URL: https://goo.gl/maps/UzJEWR2fFxP2 ​ ● Where to Park - on the street wherever there is space or in parking space between the two TMR buildings. ● Take great care entering Queensland Transport. Go slow, get organised early with your gears upon your approach to the entry. The examiner will give you plenty of notice. Remember there are learner drivers (in cars) coming in and out of the drive way as well as the general public. ● Watch your left margin around the industrial estate. You should leave a safety buffer of 1.2m between you and parked vehicles. The key is to regularly check your mirrors and use your peripheral vision to mark your road position out of the corner of your eye. ● Be wary of school zones: e.g. Caboolture State High School and Morayfield State High School ● Be wary of all of the stop signs near the railway crossing near Morayfield High School. ● If you have to stop at the railway crossing near Morayfield State High School, make sure that you do not go across until the lights stop flashing red and the boom gates go up. ● There is a school zone and a one way street called Lee Street, which runs past Caboolture High. At the end of it is a roundabout they sometimes turn right at the roundabout, watch your back wheel (i.e. maintain road position, check mirrors). Some drivers have hit the kerb here.
