Queensland citizens draws to the attention of the House our concern that the disused rail corridor from Yeppoon to Rockhampton is lying idle but could become a valuable tourism and community asset if converted to a shared walking and cycling trail with an adjacent bridle path for horses, as developed on disused railway corridors in other parts of Australia.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to ensure that the transfer of the lease of this land from Queensland Transport to Rockhampton Regional Council for this purpose is expedited and that sufficient funding be allocated to develop this potentially valuable community asset.
