    We live in Hamilton Reach and have major concerns about what the legacy athlete's village will do to the area's vibrant community feel, the quality of life in our area from such density and, ultimately, property values. In particular, the mixed housing types planned post-games are most concerning, such as "affordable" or public housing/ housing commission. What is Northshore's plan to address resident concerns of this nature? How will you ensure the above does not occur?

    KB asked 11 months ago

    Thank you for your queries.

    Planning for the Brisbane Athlete’s Village as part of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games is still in its early stages and the precise boundary for the Athletes Village has not yet been resolved. However, the importance of designing and delivering the Village to ensure a quality, enduring legacy is a top priority.

    Housing diversity is vital to creating inclusive and vibrant communities and is not a location specific outcome. Dwellings for public housing, social housing or affordable housing will be distributed throughout residential and mixed-use developments within the PDA and designed to integrate seamlessly within the existing neighbourhood.

    Thank you.

    Are there plans to bring a grocery store or food outlets to Hamilton Northshore in future and how soon can we expect this?

    G asked almost 2 years ago

    Thank you for your query. The development scheme amendment for Northshore Hamilton plans for a range of retail development, including the delivery of a full line supermarket in the main activity centre on Macarthur Avenue and convenience retail at the eastern activity centre near Northshore Riverside Park. This is in addition to the current retail area at existing Portside Wharf, which includes an existing IGA supermarket. Timing for delivery of grocery stores and food outlets will ultimately be determined by developers and retail operators, which is subject to land availability, population numbers and overall market demand.

    I live at the Hamilton Reach end of Northshore. One of the big issues is toilet access in our Parks. There is currently only one toilet in the park which is very crowded. There is a sign near the Northshore Harbour Cafe for a toilet and longer term residents tell me that there is an external toilet on the Cafe that was previously open to the public but when Management changed some time ago they closed it off and removed sign on door. Not only does it make sense to have at least 2 toilets in a public park, but this one is near the kids playground. Isn’t it part of the DA approval for the Cafe to have this toilet being open to the public and how can we get this restored for the Community.

    Thank you for your email regarding toilet access in the park at the Hamilton Reach end of Northshore.

    Northshore Riverside Park is one of many Hamilton parks managed and maintained by Brisbane City Council not Economic Development Queensland. Any concerns regarding access to public facilities at Northshore Riverside Park should be directed to Council.

    You can lodge a maintenance complaint with Council, online, you can submit a general complaint via email or you can contact Council on 07 3403 888.

    Will the LORES BONNEY RIVERWALK connect down to north shore?

    Kate B123 asked almost 2 years ago

    Yes: The 1.2km Lores Bonney Riverwalk extends east from Cameron Rocks Reserve to Brett’s Wharf. It then connects to an existing riverwalk that extends from Brett’s Wharf to Portside Wharf. As part of staged future redevelopment in the Northshore Hamilton Priority Development Area the riverwalk will be incrementally extended, ultimately connecting Portside Wharf to Northshore Riverside Park.

    Is there a timeline for the roadwork investment at the eastern end of the Northshore precinct to begin?

    Who is responsible for road maintenance within the Northshore Hamilton PDA?

    over 2 years ago

    Thank you for your email. All roads within the Northshore Hamilton PDA are the responsibility of Brisbane City Council (BCC). The only exception to this is when roads are being upgraded from their existing industrial form to a new urban form (for example the recent road upgrades around Hercules St Park). During the upgrade period (including a defects maintenance period) the road is the responsibility of EDQ, and then it is handed back to BCC for ongoing maintenance. Brisbane City Council have a road damage reporting tool which may assist.

    The road surface of Macarthur Avenue from Northshore Cafe to Portside is very poor and breaks up into large potholes whenever there is rain. Is there a schedule to resurface this road.

    Is there regular insecticide spraying of the mangrove at the eastern and northern end of Northshore. If so what is the routine schedule as the little sandflies are very aggressive at present? I have tried multiple deterrents, burning citronnela oil, insect trappers, DEET but these are not working and both myself and wife are getting large itching hives from the bites

    The Fin asked almost 4 years ago

    There have been several trailers, boats and campers parked along MacArthur Avenue in spaces designated for vehicles. These spaces are specifically for residents who do not have parking spaces for their homes, their visitors and for temporary parking for people delivering to the complexes or doing business. I know that police have a power to issue parking infringements but they obviously are too busy chasing the offenders who have been doing all the breakins and stealing cars in this division, so are BCC parking officers dealing with this? This person who owns the boat is clearly a resident and should know that his boat cannot be parked in public street parking.

    charlie13 asked almost 4 years ago

    Thank you for your question.

    Brisbane City Council have clear standards on residential parking rules in place to ensure parked or stopped vehicles do not affect local access or traffic flow.

    To report an illegal or dangerously parked vehicle, you can phone Council on 07 3403 8888.
