The long-anticipated roadworks on Redbank Plains Road are nearing completion, with Ipswich residents set to enjoy smooth travel before Christmas. Division 1 Councillor Pye Augustine announced that the road, undergoing extensive repairs between Shannon Street, Bellbird Park, and Eygall Street, Redbank Plains, will reopen before the festive season. “We’re pushing to get the asphalt laid in the coming weeks. There’s still work to be done, but we’re confident that by Christmas, the road will be fully operational,” said Augustine, urging the community to remain patient during final lane closures.
In other local news, Ipswich is celebrating Seniors Month throughout October with a series of events designed to honor and engage the city’s older residents. Under this year’s theme, “Love Getting Older,” the celebrations recognize seniors’ contributions to volunteering, mentoring, and community life. The Ipswich Libraries will host technology sessions, offering older residents the chance to learn about 3D design and other digital tools. The month’s highlight, the Seniors Expo, will take place on October 23rd at the Ipswich Showgrounds, showcasing activities and services for seniors.
Residents can also take advantage of the Free Plant Program at Providence Ripley on Saturday from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Ipswich residents can collect up to six free plants, with the initiative aiming to distribute 120,000 plants annually across the city.
This weekend will also see Councillor Augustine attending the Renegade Bowman State Titles in Division 1, as well as meeting with the Red Bucks cricket club in Redbank Plains to inspect their new roller, funded by a council grant.
