Pialba Place Developments

Tuesday, May 2nd, 2006

It seems that within 12 months Hervey Bay will have its own Big W with approval being given for the further development of the Pialba Place shopping complex.

When work finishes in approximately 12 months not only will we have Big W but we will also have a further 17 speciality shops as well

Pialba - The Plans Are Breathtaking

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Last week Hervey Bay City Council signed off on a $50 million dollar plan to breathe life back into Pialba and details of the plan have now come to hand.

The plan includes:

    Turning Main Street into a four lane road between McLiver Street and Urraween Road

    Constructing feeder roads across the cattle paddocks between Main and Nissen Streets

    Extending Urraween Road east

    Extending Torquay Terrace beyond the intersection with Main Street and across the old railway line to Charles Street

    Extending Old Maryborough Road towards the east behind Woolworths

    Construction of a Civic Centre and Council Chambers on Old Maryborough Road

    Construction of student accommodation

    Extending the Link Mobility Corridor parallel with Main Street to Urraween Road and with branches into Kawungan

    Encouraging the construction of high-rise buildings up to eight storeys high along Main Street south of Boat Harbour Drive

    Developing the foreshore at Pialba into an area that would be attractive for visitors

When the work is finished Pialba will once more be the heart of the city.
