Biloela CBD Drainage Improvements

Council: Banana Shire Council
Fund: Royalties for Resource Producing Communities Fund
Category: Flood Mitigation Infrastructure
Round: 2

Flood immunity will be improved for local businesses and homes with an upgrade to Biloela’s stormwater network.

Council will now install the necessary infrastructure to increase capacity of the CBD drainage system, alleviating overloading of the system during moderate and severe rain which has previously created road safety concerns and inundation of properties located in Kariboe, Callide and Melton Streets.
