The Palaszczuk Government yesterday announced more than $5 million to complete the first phase of a world-class ecotourism experience that’s tipped to create 150 jobs and pump up to $300 million into the Tropical North Queensland economy.
Member for Cook, Cynthia Lui confirmed the Palaszczuk Government has committed $5.7 million to complete the seven kilometre ‘Mowbray North’ component of the 94 kilometre mountain bike and walking Trail.
The Mowbray North project stretches from Port Douglas south to the Mowbray River with construction scheduled to commence in September this year.
The Wangetti Trail will be a game-changer when it comes to creating tourism jobs in Tropical North Queensland Lui says.
