Kingfisher Creek draft concept render


As part of Brisbane City Council's commitment to making Brisbane a clean, green, and, sustainable city now and for future generations, Council is developing a concept plan for the Kingfisher Creek corridor in Woolloongabba and East Brisbane.

Kingfisher Creek corridor is the third of three large, integrated priority projects identified in the Norman Creek 2012-2031 Master Plan. It aims to build a series of 'stepping stone' greenspaces in the heart of Woolloongabba and East Brisbane.
