October 2018
THIS DOCUMENT HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE IQ-RAP WORKING GROUP ON BEHALF OF ALL 28 LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, 5 RDAS and RACQ PARTNERS AND THEIR COMMUNITIES
PEOPLE
• 442,012 people (2017; 9% of QLD)
• 32,199 Indigenous people (not including 2,220 in
Doomadgee and Woorabinda who are in the IQ-RAP
area and will have potential to benefit but have not
contributed to the project)
• 627,362 in 2036
• 16,117 unemployed (March 2018)
• Unemployment 7.2% vs Qld 6.0% (March 2018)
• 35% and 35.4% in lowest 2 socio-economic quintiles
LAND
2
• 1.26 million km
• 73% of QLD i.e. 18x Tasmania
• 16% of Australia
INDUSTRY
• $43.5 billion GRP (2015/16), compared to:
• $26 billion GSP in Tasmania
• $21 billion GSP in the NT
• Agriculture – cattle, grain, horticulture; mining – coal,
gold, copper, lead, zinc, silver, rare earths; energy –
coal, gas, renewables; tourism; construction;
manufacturing
Local governments participating in the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project are highlighted

THE INLAND QUEENSLAND ROAD NETWORK CONNECTS REGIONS, STATES AND THEIR INDUSTRIES, EXPORTERS, MARKETS, COMMUNITIES AND TOURISTS.

THE FOLLOWING ARE THE KEY CORRIDORS AND CONNECTORS THAT SUPPORT ECONOMIC SUPPLY CHAINS ACROSS QUEENSLAND
Queensland exported $70 billion of goods in the year
ending February 2017. Coal, minerals, meat and other food
products produced in regional Queensland made up the
bulk of these exports. (QGSO)

THE INLAND QUEENSLAND ROAD NETWORK STRATEGY HAS PRIORITISED PROJECTS ON KEY FREIGHT CORRIDORS AND CONNECTORS TO DRIVE PRODUCTIVITY + ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT + ECONOMIC DIVERSIFICATION THROUGH TOURISM + JOBS + MORE RESILIENT CONNECTIVITY + BETTER SAFETY OUTCOMES

THE INLAND QUEENSLAND ROAD NETWORK STRATEGY PROPOSES INVESTMENT TO ACHIEVE FIT-FOR-PURPOSE STANDARDS ON 3,000 KM AND 300 BRIDGES THAT REQUIRE
UPGRADING. THERE IS NO GOLD-PLATING, NO BLUE SKY.

IQ-RAP partners are seeking Inland Queensland’s equitable share of ROSI and other funding programs to drive productivity in a $43.5 billion regional economy, create jobs, diversify local economies, build more
resilient connectivity and ensure better safety outcomes. This can be achieved through the following investments.
• $294 m to fund the highest priorities in IQRNS over 4 years 2018/19 – 2022/23 ($106 million has already been committed towards the $400 million required)
• That is an Australian Government investment of 0.17% of the region’s GRP over 4 years
• Or potentially on an 80/20 split with the state government $235 m/ $59 m, it would be an Australian Government investment of 0.14% of the region’s GRP over 4 years
• $1,887 m over the following 5 years from 2023/24 to 2028/29
• That is an Australian Government investment of 0.87% of the region’s GRP over 5 years
• Or potentially on an 80/20 split with the state government $1,510 m/ $377 m, it would be an Australian Government investment of 0.69% of the region’s GRP

THE IQRNS MAKES A CONVINCING ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL BENEFIT CASE FOR INVESTMENT
The IQRNS will deliver improved access to regional Queensland for freight, tourists and other road users, improved safety, reduced ongoing maintenance costs, improved
community infrastructure, employment, training and business development opportunities for Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.
Based on expenditure of $2,287 million over 10 years, the following economic and job impacts can be achieved.
EXAMPLES OF BENEFITS
TOTAL IMPACT OVER 10 YEARS 1. Productivity improvements in the agricultural sector through shorter travel
times with improvements in road quality, and a reduction on wear and tear on
GRP vehicles and associated maintenance costs.

Indirect Impact (Type I) $1,339 $616 $367 4,213 3. A reduction in horticultural wastage caused by poor road conditions, leading
to higher return on investment.

4. Mining companies will be able to move their over-mass sized equipment from
Total Impact $5,529 $2,566 $1,124 13,768 ports to mine sites with greater efficiency and safety.
5. Better roads will lead to greater efficiency and productivity for grain,
horticultural, beef, mining and other exporters competing globally.
6. Jobs through planning, design, construction and maintenance of roads,
particularly in Outback Queensland area where there is extremely high youth

Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP) partner councils that have invested in the Inland Queensland Road Network Strategy (IQRNS), and their towns, are highlighted in
bold red. In accordance with Roads of Strategic Importance (ROSI) funding being allocated separately into northern and southern Australia, this document identifies key corridors and
critical connectors for industries, communities and tourists in the north and south and the corridors that connect southern and northern Australia. Costings are approximate and there
is some duplication where corridors cover the same section of the network.
