The much-anticipated development of the Moore Park Beach precinct is forging ahead with contractors on site.

The project is a multimillion-dollar initiative which will have a range of amenities aimed at enhancing liveability for residents and attracting visitors.

The precinct will have a number of buildings including a community annex with three buildings, which will house the community hub, men’s shed, and a storage and thrift shop building.

Beachside Moore Park Real Estate has been in the area for 35 years and agent Charles Nemeth said he had seen the population of the community swell by about 500 people, according to sales data from 2020 to now.

He said the majority of people moving to Moore Park Beach were retirees or semi-retirees from Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, and the Gold Coast.
“They have chosen Moore Park Beach for its laid-back lifestyle and affordability and of course our great beach,” Mr Nemeth said.

“The Moore Park Beach Precinct will add more infrastructure the older and original residents have wanted for a very long time.”

The area has grown in recent years.

In 2021, a 49-plot sub division was planned for the area in along Murdochs and Moore Park roads.
Council has also entered into a building contract with local builder Hallstone Constructions to deliver a community annex north of the Moore Park Beach Bowls Club.
“This is a game-changer for Moore Park Beach and the wider Bundaberg Region,” Mayor Helen Blackburn said.

The precinct’s features include significant landscape works, irrigation of the sports oval, civil works and a new sewer reticulation network and wastewater treatment plant.

“These enhancements are expected to promote healthy lifestyles, boost tourism and build a strong sense of community among residents,” Ms Blackburn said.

Council announce contractors at work on the multimillion-dollar Moore Park Beach precinct.

“Within the new precinct, Surf Life Saving Queensland (SLSQ) will also be constructing a new clubhouse to service Moore Park Beach. Upon completion of their new clubhouse, slated for late 2024 or early 2025, the existing old facility will be demolished. Council will be assisting SLSQ by providing them with a sewer connection to their new facility as well as carpark and landscaping around the building.”
