Queensland citizens draws to the attention of the House the potential
loss of the heritage listed sandstone abutments of the Heiner Road
Overbridge, Heiner Road and the Wharf Branch Railway at North Ipswich.
They are Queensland’s first road overbridge crossing for a railway, the
very first section of railway and the first main road to be built by a
railway in Queensland.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to protect and allow to
publicly display in-situ at all costs and for all time these significant
and unique pieces of Australia’s heritage and incorporate and feature
them into any new development in this precinct for future generations.
