The Mackay Regional Local Government Area is one of the fastest- growing in Queensland, with a population of over 120,000. The region’s growth is fuelled by strong activity in the resources sector, resurgence in agribusiness, and growth in construction, logistics and tourism. The Mackay region is the gateway to the rich coal deposits in the Bowen and Galilee Basins. It is one of the largest sugar-producing regions in Australia and hosts much of the engineering, manufacturing and mining services industries supporting the wider Mackay- Isaac-Whitsunday economy. Only an hour’s flight from Brisbane, the Mackay region boasts an enviable lifestyle and a buoyant economy with the benefits of a fast-growing coastal city. Its coastal location is complemented by its spectacular natural environment. This includes 31 beaches, a picturesque blue river and a pristine rainforest hinterland. This website presents economic and demographic data for the Mackay region. For further information on the Mackay region, please contact the Mackay Regional Council’s Economic Development team – phone: 1300 Mackay (622 529) or (07) 4961 9444. The industry sectors which are the key drivers of the Mackay region’s economy in terms of regional exports, employment, value-added and local expenditure on goods and services (backward linkages) are recognised as key propulsive industries. At the 114 industry sector level, the industry sectors which ‘ranked’ in the top 10 in terms of regional exports, employment, value- added and local expenditure on goods and services (backward linkages) are: Mackay Region Construction Services > Heavy & Civil Engineering Construction GRP - $6.962b > Wholesale Trade Population – 123,724 > Pre-School, Primary, Secondary & Special Education Strong population growth forecast, heading towards 200,000 over the coming decades Professional, Scientific & Technical Services > Gateway to the Bowen and Galilee Basins Sugar & Confectionery Manufactiring > Located an hour’s flight to Brisbane Health Care Services > Great Barrier Reef located just off shore Retail Trade Coal Mining Agriculture, Forestry & Fishing Support Services Mackay Economic Profile | June 2016 The estimated resident population in the Mackay region as at June 30, 2015 was 123,724 people.

This paper sets out: o This changing pattern and the leading role of Cairns and the Cairns region in this changing pattern; o Why this consistent pattern of change has been happening over a period of time; and o On a continuation of these long-term trends, what regional population in Queensland would look like by 2050.

Realities of distances lead to the area being served by a series of regional capitals with distinct commercial servicing regions. Map 1 shows these regional capitals and the commercial regions they serve. In the case of Cairns, Townsville, Mackay and Toowoomba, the regional capitals and their commercial servicing areas are fairly clear. Although Rockhampton is the regional capital of the Fitzroy and Central West region, unlike Cairns, Townsville and Mackay, the region’s port is not located at the city, but 100km away at Gladstone.

  • West Mackay Growth Profile

    West Mackay Growth Profile

    West Mackay Growth Profile West Mackay is part of the traditional lands of the Yuwibara people. West Mackay developed along the Bruce Highway as the main transport axis into Mackay. Notable early developments include a government sugar nursery built in 1890 near the lagoons (now the Mackay Botanic Gardens), later replaced by a Sugar Experimental Station in 1898 and the Queensland Heritage listed Sugar Research Institute in 1953 designed by prominent architect Karl Langer. Additionally, the Mackay District Hospital (now the Mackay Base Hospital) was built in 1885 and underwent a series of major expansions in the 1920’s, 1980 and a major redevelopment to its current modern standard between 2010 to 2014. Outlook If current housing trends continue an increase in higher density dwellings and supporting rental housing for local residents. The ageing population trend is anticipated to lead to a greater concentration of empty nesters/retirees in West Mackay. Growth is driven by densification of housing in an older character neighbourhood in close proximity to local employment. Health is anticipated to continue to be a main employer with the location of the Mackay Base Hospital in West Mackay.

    Chapter 2: the Mackay Setting

    CHAPTER 2: THE MACKAY SETTING Ken Granger and Trevor Jones Introduction Mackay, in Central Queensland, is one of the State’s larger regional cities. It lies, roughly mid way between Brisbane and Cairns, being some 800 km in a direct line, or 970 km by road, from Brisbane. The 2890 km2 area administered by Mackay City Council has a resident population of approximately 71 400. The Mackay urban area which is the focus of this study, occupies around 240 km2 and is home to around 59 000 people. The city is predominantly a transport, education and service centre for a large sugar and grain growing district, with a major coal export terminal at Dalrymple Bay/Hay Point. Mackay is also the gateway to the tourist resorts on the southern islands of the Whitsunday Group. For the neighbouring council areas of Mirani (about 5100 people) to the west, Sarina (9400 people) to the south, and Whitsunday (18 300 people) to the north, Mackay is the major centre. These jurisdictional boundaries are shown in Figure 2.1. 11 Figure 2.1: Mackay study area location The Physical Setting Topography: The entire study area is low-lying, with an average elevation of less than 10 m above the Australian Height Datum (AHD), with the low hills of Mount Bassett (approximately 30 m above AHD) and Mount Pleasant (about 60 m above AHD) as the main features of relief. In the original area of urban development, south of the Pioneer River, the average elevation is around 6 m above AHD and ranges from less than 4 m above AHD at the airport to a little over 11 m above AHD at the Mackay Base Hospital.

    The Optimal Location of Ambulance Stations in a Regional Area: the Case of Mackay

    22nd International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 3 to 8 December 2017 mssanz.org.au/modsim2017 The Optimal Location of Ambulance Stations in a Regional Area: The Case of Mackay M. Dzatora and J. Dzatorb a Central Queensland University, Mackay; b The University of Newcastle, NSW Email: [email protected] Abstract: The provision of efficient and effective emergency service such as ambulance service is a task faced by most cities and major regional centres. The emergency medical service is very necessary and plays a vital role in reducing death or serious complication from life threatening health incident. Over the years, there have been several major initiatives to improve the access to and quality of emergency care in Queensland. In 2009-2010, public hospital Emergency Departments (ED) in Australia covered about 7.4 million emergency cases of which there were over 3 million ambulance incidents. Mackay is a regional city in Queensland, Australia’s east coast. The Mackay Metropolitan which comprises of 24 suburbs is prone to natural disasters such as cyclones and flood. The Mackay region depends highly on emergency services especially during disasters. The current ambulance locations in the Mackay Local Ambulance Service Network (LASN) are significantly underperforming with regard to not meeting the target response time according to Queensland 2014 ambulance report. Early response to emergency calls is important and crucial for human survival. The response time is a function of the distance between the emergency facility and emergency demand. It is therefore important to locate emergency facility such that the distance to be travelled by an ambulance in response to emergency call is minimized.
