16.01.2022 Hey! We have a little something to share with you. Our highway signage strategy is nearly ready for the 'big reveal'. Over the past four years, we have ...carried out hundreds of hours of research, have spoken with previous Chamber Executive members, held many meetings with current Chamber members and members of the wider Warwick community, to help us in how best to promote our wonderful Warwick businesses and region. And now, with Chamber on the eve of announcing our new look website and new duel direction, both as your Chamber and a local tourism organisation for Warwick, we are pleased to give you a sneak peek of our brand new highway billboards. We are so thankful for all the input, suggestions, feedback and support shown to Chamber (there have been many over the past four years) and we would love to give a big shout out to two wonderful local businesses (both Chamber members) who have assisted us in getting the job done. Our sincere thanks to Helen from CHM Photography and to Carey and his team at Zooma Signs. Your creativity, enthusiasm, professionalism and support have made this whole crazy process so much fun! This project has been assisted by Grants to Community funding from Southern Downs Regional Council. Due to COVID-19 social distancing restrictions, we will not be having an official launch on site, however will be sharing some fresh photos over the next few days. #happeningswarwickqld #harvestwarwickqld #horsepowerwarwickqld #historywarwickqld #heritagewarwickqld

13.01.2022 Meet our Ambassadors Joseph Levick & Tiffany Cullen! Joe is 24 years old, originally from Kent, England but has called Warwick home for a little over 6 y...ears now. Growing up in a military family, he has been fortunate to travel all over the world and meet great people in each destination he visits. Tiff is 22 years old and has been a local her whole life! Growing up on a sheep farm in Karara she has experienced first hand the devastating effects of the drought and how much it can impact a small community. She enjoys being an active member of several clubs in town including; netball, rugby union and here at the Warwick Turf Club! A great way to keep busy and stay social. There are many reasons the lovely couple enjoy a race day in Warwick. From the thrill of backing a roughy to catching up with their friends over a cold drink. There’s never a dull moment at the Warwick Turf Club with fashions on the field during the day and post races live entertainment on dark. The recent upgrades to the pavilion and canteen make it the place to be on race day! The thrill and excitement on race day is something everyone looks forward to and both Joe & Tiff aim to continue that rush going into the 20-21 season. The couple have a few fun ideas they will be bringing to the table and they both can’t wait to meet you all at the Warwick Cup on the 10th October.

09.01.2022 He may have been the sole Stanthorpe Swimming Club representative at the Queensland State Short Course Championships held recently at the Chandle Aquatic Centre..., but Granite Belt local Ben Armbruster, certainly made his mark. He competed in 10 events, receiving 7 medals for his efforts. He also set 9 new personal best times, and which was a remarkable feat considering his limited preparation. After travelling to Warwick for the last 9 weeks to complete 4-5 training sessions, he exceeded his own expectations. Ben won Gold in the 8yrs 100m Butterfly (53.30) and 50m Backstroke (25.31), narrowly missing the age group record set by Ashley Anderson of Commercial in 2003 (24.73). He then achieved Silver in the 18yrs 50m Freestyle, 50m Butterfly and 100m Backstroke and Bronze in the 18yrs 100m Freestyle and 200m Butterfly, dropping 2.64s from his seed time. He also placed 4th in the 50m Breaststroke, 6th in the Open Men’s 100m IM and 8th in the Open Men’s 50m Freestyle. Stanthorpe Swimming Club is set to return with sign on Friday, the 9th of October from 5.30pm-6.30pm. The committee has kept fees the same as last season, which provides excellent value for money for the amount of club nights that swimmers can attend. Swimming Club is held each Friday night from 5.30pm, with swimmers only needing to be able to swim 25m to participate. For enquiries, please contact Gail Smail at the Stanthorpe Swimming Pool on 46810181, Brendan Kay 0417741500 or Deb McGlashan 0420452499 See more

06.01.2022 Work on a $25 million heavy engineering solution at the Eight Mile intersection north of Warwick is due to start in February of next year, following a major joi...nt Federal-State announcement. Federal MP for Maranoa David Littleproud and Queensland Minister for Transport and Main Roads Mark Bailey made good on a commitment given during the Queensland election campaign in a rare display of cooperation between George Street in Brisbane and Canberra, ostensibly due to a national capital works program prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Eight Mile - at the junction of the Cunningham and New England Highways - has for decades been one of the region’s most notorious traffic ‘black spots’, and the scene of numerous fatalities. The work is projected for completion in mid-2022 and is expected to generate significant delays and potential diversions, although details of those are yet to be released. The Eight Mile project will include a ‘grade separation’ or overpass and associated roadworks and associated improvements, with the State Government having recently called for tenders for construction, a tendering process which closed at the end of October. Mr Bailey this week told the Free Times the tender is due to be awarded in December and the successful lead contractor announced in early 2021, with works scheduled to start in early February. Also announcing the Eight Mile project was Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormack, who said the Australian and Queensland governments have unlocked funding to the tune of $25 million for the Cunningham Highway - Eight Mile Intersection Upgrade, which will go towards improving safety at this dangerous junction. The funding will deliver a grade-separated interchange at the intersection of the Cunningham and New England highways, north of Warwick, Mr McCormack said. Supporting an estimated 50 jobs over the life of the project, this upgrade will reduce the risk of crashes while allowing passenger and freight traffic alike to navigate the area more quickly and efficiently, saving time and freight operating costs. This is exactly the type of project we continue to roll out across Australia under our $110 billion infrastructure investment program, which is laying the foundations for economic recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic. Mr Bailey said projects like this form part of a record $25.7 billion jointly-funded program being delivered by the Queensland Government to build better roads and transport, and create jobs as part of Queensland’s plan for economic recovery. This is a critical upgrade for the region, with longstanding calls locally to fix what is known as the Eight Mile Intersection, Mr Bailey said. Unlocking the funding now will allow works to get under way early next year and spark up to 50 jobs in construction for the region. The project will include a 66-metre-long bridge for traffic travelling from Toowoomba to Warwick, driving safety and improving capacity along this critical route for the region. David Littleproud - whose Federal seat of Maranoa takes in Warwick and Stanthorpe - said the funding was just part of the Australian Government’s commitment to delivering a safer, more efficient and more reliable Cunningham Highway. The Federal Government has committed a total of $170 million to deliver upgrades to the Cunningham Highway, Mr Littleproud said. I look forward to continuing to work with industry and local communities to identify and unlock funding for critical improvements right up and down the highway. Queensland Assistant Minister for Regional Roads Bruce Saunders said improving safety and capacity on Southern Downs roads was crucial to the region’s $2 billion economy. Better roads get families home safer, our products to markets across Australia and the globe, and stimulate jobs - which is why we’ve also injected another $1 billion in joint stimulus funding since April to upgrade roads right across the region and the state, Mr Saunders said. Construction on the Cunningham Highway - Eight Mile Intersection Upgrade is expected to begin in early 2021 and be completed by mid-2022, weather and construction conditions permitting. See more
