Inherent soil erodibility refers to the susceptibility of soils to detachment and transportation by erosive agents. It is a composite expression of those soil properties that affect the behavior of soil and is a function of the mechanical, chemical and physical characteristics of the soil. Soil erodibility is independent of the other factors influencing soil Cairns erosion, such as topography, land use, rainfall intensity and plant cover, but may be changed by management. This project has developed spatial datasets that describe: Burketown • surface soil stability (A Horizon) Townsville • subsoil dispersibility (B Horizon) • and inherent soil erodibility 27° S Charters Mackay 27° S The dataset is reliable to a sub-catchment scale (1:250,000) and can be used to identify areas vulnerable to Mount Isa Towers erosion. This map displays the subsoil dispersibility. It is for display purposes only. To effectively assess what areas are Rockhampton vulnerable to erosion, the dataset should be combined with other topographic, land use and climate datasets and Longreach local knowledge using a geographic information system. Data can be downloaded through the Open Data portal. KILOMETRES Bundaberg The data is available as 90m GeoTIFF rasters for use in GIS and can be freely downloaded from 0 50 100 150 www.data.qld.gov.au and www.qspatial.qld.gov.au.

  • 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).
