Rockhampton businesses can now register their interest to be part of the redevelopment of Rockhampton’s railyards.
The State Government wants a 17-hectare section of the Bolsover Street site to contribute to rail manufacturing.
Regional Roads and Train Manufacturing Assistant Minister Bruce Saunders said the site could become a regional rail supply chain hub.
“We’re moving ahead with our election commitment to build trains in Maryborough and Rocky will play an important part in the supply chain,” he said.
“Queensland’s new trains will be built in Maryborough, but we see the potential for components and materials needed during manufacturing to be supplied from other parts of the state like Rockhampton.”
