Council is pleased to announce that it has finalised an Infrastructure Agreement with Catcon for road infrastructure associated with the Coopers Gap Windfarm.

The agreement achieves a major $6.7M reconstruction and upgrade of Niagara Road. Works will be undertaken by Council. The 13km of Niagara Road will be fully constructed to 6m wide with a 4m seal between the Bunya Highway and Jarail Road. During the construction phase of the windfarm, the road will be overlayed and resheeted to an unsealed road standard with the final reconstruction and seal to be undertaken upon the completion of the project.

Mayor Keith Campbell said, “Council continues to work in a cooperative and beneficial partnership with AGL Energy, Catcon and its partners. The upgrade of Niagara Road represents another major benefit to the South Burnett Community as part of the Coopers Gap windfarm project.”
