The Queensland Government has chosen a bayside precinct near Redland Bay, to be a priority growth area for the influx of interstate residents.

Following the new Covid outbreaks along the Australian south east, Queensland is expected to gain nearly 62 thousand residents over the next three years.

The development will contain a new town centre, 3000 homes, a potential primary school and new wastewater system, opening up over 700 jobs a year during the expansion.
