A story appeared in the Redland City Bulletin on Wednesday 9 March citing a $100 million loan from Redland City Council to the State Government to fix traffic congestion on Cleveland Redland Bay Road, which is a State Government road.
The figure of $100 million quoted by the media was not provided by Council and the cost of undertaking this work will not be known until a feasibility study is undertaken.
The story follows a decision on 9 December 2015 for Council to consider options for market-led proposals to fast-track the delivery of road and transport infrastructure that is the State Government’s responsibility within Redland City. Options could include partnering with the State Government and the private sector.
