Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House the need for the upgrade of Colleges Crossing situated on Mount Crosby Road, Chuwar.

 

Rising waters in the Brisbane River and frequent dam releases render the Crossing impassable resulting in major disruption to the provision of emergency services and general traffic between the Karalee and Karana Downs communities.

 

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to implement a process for the planned upgrade of Colleges Crossing with a suitable structure that will remain open and accessible during flood mitigation from the Wivenhoe catchment.
