APRIL 11: The Darra to Springfield railway line will be built east
of the existing Centenary Highway with train stations at Richlands and
Springfield Lakes.
The State Government released the passenger
railway line plan last week but did not intend to conduct community
consultation on the Richlands station until Member for Inala Annastacia
Palaszczuk insisted.
A spokeswoman for the Main Roads Minister Paul Lucas said it was the local member's job to be at the forefront of issues.
Brisbane City Councillor Les Bryant (Richlands) was also disappointed by the lack of consultation.
Two parcels of land have been earmarked as potential sites for the rail station.
The
options are council-owned land wedged between the Centenary Motorway,
Garden, Progress, and Main roads land south of Progress Rd, between
Progress Rd and Government Rd.
People can view the options until
April 29 at Ms Palaszczuk's office at 20 Wirraway Pde, Inala; at the
Inala Library, Corsair Ave; and at Richlands Primary School at 75 Old
Progress Rd, Richlands.
Staff will be on hand to explain the plans from 10am-2pm on Saturday and on April 21 at the Inala Civic Centre at 156 Inala Ave.
