A Wambo wind farm worker has tragically died after his vehicle rolled and struck a tree at Jinghi.

A Queensland Police spokesman confirmed a 31-year-old man from Highfields was travelling along Jandowae Connection Road at 6am on Tuesday when the crash occurred.

“The driver and sole occupant was declared deceased at the scene,” the spokesman said.

“The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating the circumstances of the crash.”

A CMFEU spokesman said they understood the worker was driving a work vehicle this morning at the site near Dalby.

The Wambo Wind Farm project is a joint venture between Cubico Sustainable Investments, a major investor in the renewable energy sector globally and Stanwell.
