Transport Infrastructure
Multi modal transport corridor (MMTC): a road and future public transport corridor that will link Caloundra Road, near Corbould Park, with the Sunshine Motorway at the Mooloolah River interchange. This corridor will serve vehicle, public transport, pedestrian and cycle needs. The Caloundra-Mooloolaba Road is located within this corridor.
The Caloundra-Mooloolaba Road will be an approximately 15 km long motorway standard road, to connect Caloundra Road (near Courbould Park) in the south, to Mooloolaba at the Mooloolah River interchange.
The southern section from Caloundra Road to Creekside Boulevard is currently under construction and is due for completion in early 2009. Provisions will be made for ultimate six lane construction.
Benefits to the community will include:
• reduced travel time
• reducing traffic congestion on Nicklin Way
• providing an alternate route to or from the southern part of the Sunshine Coast
• better access to Kawana town centre.
CAMCOS corridor: the CAMCOS corridor provides for a future heavy rail link between Beerwah and Maroochydore Airport. North of Creekside Boulevard, it is included within the MMTC. South of Creekside Boulevard the CAMCOS corridor deviates to the east.
Kawana Way: is a new road that connects the Sunshine Motorway to Kawana and will extend down to Creekside Boulevard, as development occurs. It is linked to Nicklin Way at Kawana Island Boulevard, Main Drive, Lake Kawana Boulevard and, ultimately, Creekside Boulevard - Erang Street.
SM2032 study (Sunshine Motorway): this study sought to identify improvements needed to the Sunshine Motorway to cater for expected traffic demand by the year 2032.
