Sunshine Coast Line Action Plan
SUNSHINE COAST LINE ACTION PLAN Submission Description The Sunshine Coast Line (SCL) connects to the Caboolture Line at Caboolture, approximately 50km north of Brisbane, and runs for a further 123km to Gympie North, whereupon it becomes the North Coast Line (NCL). The Caboolture Line consists of four tracks from Roma Street to Northgate and three tracks to Lawnton, from where a double track operates to Caboolture. In the south, the SCL continues as double track to Beerburrum, where it reverts to a single track, with short passing loops at most stations to allow trains travelling in opposite directions to pass each other. Several characteristics make the SCL unique among South-East Queensland’s rail lines. The SCL forms part of the railway track that falls within the federal government’s National Transport Network, mainly in recognition of its role in carrying significant volumes of freight each year to and from central and north Queensland over lines that also are traversed by long-distance Travel Trains and passenger trains connecting Brisbane and Gympie North via the Caboolture Line. Any investment in the SCL through the Sunshine Coast hinterland is a direct investment in meeting the transport needs of other regions, most notably Gladstone–Rockhampton, Mackay and Townsville. Much of the SCL is built to a poor alignment dating from the early days of construction that began in the 19th century. At times, passenger trains must slow to 40 km/hr, making the trip to Brisbane inconvenient and slow. Short passing loops – that require freight trains half that of long super-freighters operating in other states – increase costs for Queensland freight forwarders. -

Good for Business
NOOSA Good for Business The right environment for investment NOOSA Good for Business Noosa @ Work - the right environment for investment Aboriginals were present in Noosa for tens of thousands of years before Europeans first arrived in the 1800s. Noosa Council acknowledges the Kabi Kabi (also known as Gubbi Gubbi) people who are the traditional custodians of this land and we pay respect to their elders past and present. Welcome to Noosa! Noosa means business. Here in Noosa we take our environment very seriously, and that same passion extends to our community and our local economy. Over half a century of community activism has resulted in a local government region that is decidedly distinctive. Today Noosa Shire enjoys a reputation for avid environmental protection as well as sensitive human development. Arguably, Noosa Shire was pioneering sustainability long before the term was popularised. While the tourism industry provides the essential spine for the local economy, Noosa Council is aware that diversification is the key to long-term economic strength. The opportunity for local businesses to leverage off the Noosa “brand” should not be underestimated. Noosa has already seen considerable growth in entrepreneurial enterprises, particularly in the digital and IT fields. More and more “barefoot executives” are basing themselves here, capitalising on both the lifestyle and the technological advances that allow them to connect with domestic and global markets. Business opportunities abound in Noosa, particularly in areas that mesh with the iconic Noosa image. Clean tech, agribusiness, creative industries, environmental industries plus the health & wellness sector may find that a Noosa home-base provides a useful marketing edge. -
