Weinam Creek Priority Development Area Project
The Weinam Creek area was declared a Priority Development Area by Economic Development Queensland in 2013, following advocacy from Council.
Over the past decade, a number of key components of the Weinam Creek project have already been delivered, including:
- finalising an approved master plan for the precinct through Economic Development Queensland
- more than 500 additional commuter car parks at Moores Road
- a new pedestrian footbridge and pathway
- a new recreational boat ramp
- transition of the existing boat ramp to exclusive emergency services use
- a new extension of Hamilton Street, Redland Bay, improving direct access to the Marina Ferry Terminal
- an extension to the Moreton Bay Cycleway
- two new bus stops on Meissner Street, Redland Bay
- significant preliminary civil works to support future development, including the multi-storey car park.
State to deliver multi-storey car park
For many years, Council also advocated for the State Government to fund or deliver car parking infrastructure at the Weinam Creek ferry terminal, consistent with arrangements at other Translink transport hubs across Queensland.
In April 2026, the State Government commenced a compulsory land acquisition process at the Weinam Creek Ferry Terminal to support delivery of a multi-storey car park. Council is now liaising with Economic Development Queensland and working with Redland Investment Corporation to support the State Government’s progression of the multi-storey car park. This includes ongoing discussions to ensure the broader master plan intent for the remainder of the site can be delivered.
