Gympie Road streetscaping, Strathpine

Council is enhancing the pedestrian experience along Gympie Road in Strathpine.  The works will occur between Buckby Street and Mecklem Street. These upgrades will provide a safer, more accessible pathway. This aligns with the Disability Discrimination Act, benefiting the local community and visitors. 

The project will also create a more sustainable streetscape through water-sensitive urban design. This supports the long-term health of the iconic Hoop Pines, preserving them as a key feature of the area. 

Further project works include:

• replacing the footpath with a new wider footpath
• localised boardwalk installation over raised tree roots
• upgrades to pedestrian crossings
• installation of tree cells
• streamlining and replacement of street furniture such as bench seats
• installation of way-finding signage.

During construction, you can expect to see: 

• temporary footpaths providing alternative access to businesses 
• temporary way-finding signage 
• construction site fencing and mesh 
• construction machinery on site which may be noisy. 

We understand this work may cause some inconvenience. We appreciate your cooperation and patience.
