Projects underway

Safe crossing trial

The Jimboomba Summit identified a new pedestrian connection across Mount Lindesay Highway as a key priority for the local community. Another priority was to revitalise the unused railway corridor.

The safe crossing trial will create a temporary structure under the Mount Lindesay Highway that will connect the eastern side of Jimboomba with the Jimboomba town centre. Public lighting and CCTV is provided for community safety.

The pathway will provide a safe pedestrian crossing until the Department of Transport and Main Road’s upgrade of the Mount Lindesay Highway.

The project started in January 2021 and is due to finish in about twelve months. The project timeframe could change depending on the Department of Transport and Main Road’s upgrade of the Mount Lindesay Highway.

Jimboomba Town Centre Working Group

The Jimboomba Town Centre Working Group represents local residents, businesses, property owners, retailers and other stakeholders. The group started in November 2020 and meets every two months. The group gives input and guidance to Council on the detailed design and delivery of the Jimboomba Implementation Fund Projects.

Jimboomba Implementation Fund (2020)

On 20 July 2020, Council endorsed a budget allocation of $2 million to establish an Implementation Fund for Jimboomba. The fund will focus on the delivery of key priority projects identified from the Jimboomba Summit.
