Sunshine Coast Council

Following resident concerns and to assist with improving residential parking availability in the Birtinya traffic area, council officers have extended the one hour (1P) parking area.

This upgrade includes new traffic lights and slip lanes to allow a safe commute around the school, reducing safety issues for parents at pick-up and drop-off times.

A strategy that provides important targets and the blueprint for an integrated, safe and efficient transport system that services and supports a rapidly growing Sunshine Coast has been endorsed by council on December 6 2018.

The Glasshouse Country Community Carols is back and bigger than ever! With two to three thousand people expected on Saturday December 15, the new organisers are preparing the event with a big stage, great sound and an exciting, brand new program.

It was a pleasure to attend the night of nights for the Sunshine Coast business community at Novotel Twin Waters at the weekend.

I’m extremely happy with the outcome for the Brisbane Road car park site at the recent Ordinary Meeting.
