BDR input sought
USERS of the Burke Developmental Road (BDR) between Dunbar and Dimbulah are being encouraged to do a survey to inform a strategy being developed by the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR).

The upgrade strategy will identify options to upgrade this section of the BDR over the short, medium and long-term to improve safety, reliability, transport efficiency and flood resilience.
The strategy will guide future investment decisions for infrastructure upgrades to meet future traffic demand.
TMR says detailed planning and construction of any identified upgrades are currently unfunded.
TMR is seeking feedback from users of the BDR on issues and opportunities for infrastructure upgrades.
To have your say, go to www.yoursay-projects.tmr.qld.gov.au/burke-developmental-road before 4 August.
Feedback collected will assist the development of a strategic vision and prioritisation of upgrade options for future funding.
