25.01.2022 Queenslands planning framework plays an important role in assisting the states economic recovery. In July 2020, we consulted with the community about proposed changes to planning laws to reduce red tape and simplify planning processes, so Queensland can get back on its feet quickly. Thanks to this valuable feedback, we have released a range of planning initiatives to support Queensland to Unite and Recover qld.gov.au/planningsupportmeasures. #UniteAndRecover #betterplanning4QLD

07.01.2022 As we Unite and Recover from COVID-19, it is more important than ever that we ensure local neighbourhood design safeguards Queenslanders health and wellbeing and builds resilience.

We understand that many established neighbourhoods are not conducive to wa...lking, and to support councils we have developed the Walkability Improvement Tool to help councils identify and prioritise walkability improvements based on what provides the greatest return on investment.
