Why Rockhampton
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
The Industry Park will be a major boost for investment in Rockhampton as it will cater for the overflow from the existing industrial precincts that are at capacity while also allowing for growing demand for industrial land required to service the mining sector.
Road Trains cannot enter the current main Rockhampton industrial precincts with consequent loss of time and double handling required.
Gracemere will be the starting point for access to industry and mining throughout the region and has been designed to cater for a wide range of transport requirements
The estate is one of the few industry parks in Queensland capable of catering for Road Trains in both an allowable use context and also within its internal road systems.
“I’m delighted the Gibb Group is developing its industrial estate beside the Gracemere overpass. Council has put a great deal of effort into constructing the supporting road, water and sewerage infrastructure. This will be the first development in the Gracemere Industrial Area that has the capacity to house businesses servicing the Bowen, Galilee and Surat Basin coal mines. This is an important step for the Region as it seeks to expand its role as a major service point for Central Queensland business.”
Cr Margaret Strelow – Mayor of the Rockhampton Region
