Paper Petition

The petition of citizens of Queensland draws to the attention of the
House the potential loss of the heritage listed sandstone abutments of
the Heiner Road Overbridge, Heiner Road and the Wharf Branch Railway at
North Ipswich. They are Queensland’s first road overbridge crossing for
a railway, the very first section of railway and the first main road to
be built by a railway in Queensland.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to protect and allow to
publicly display in-situ at all costs and for all time these significant
and unique pieces of Australia’s heritage and incorporate and feature
them into any new development in this precinct for future generations.
