Ipswich sits at the centre of major state and national highways that are vital to transport flows for people and commerce. These highways are in serious need of investment and upgrades. Without this, they will become more dangerous and the region’s core transport arteries for people and the industry will choke.
What’s needed?
The Cunningham Highway is a major national highway and the backbone of Ipswich’s transport network. It services RAAF Base Amberley, Ipswich’s growth corridor, the Ripley Valley Priority Development Area (PDA), and will service the future Ebenezer Regional Industrial Area (ERIA).
There is an urgent need for upgrades to the Yamanto to Ebenezer Creek section of highway, including duplication to four lanes and upgrades to the Amberley Interchange which services RAAF Base Amberley.
