The RP Infrastructure (RPI) team has been collaborating with Whitsunday Regional Council since 2015 to execute a significant program of 18 infrastructure projects ranging in scale from $150,000 up to $20 million.

Project Overview

Some of the notable projects that have been undertaken in the region include:

  • Proserpine Administration Building design and delivery, which included a Local Disaster Coordination Centre and an innovation Hub
  • Flagstaff Hill Cultural and Conference Centre with a function area, a cafeteria style dining set-up and a cultural activities area
  • Whitsunday Coast Airport refurbishment
  • Lake Proserpine upgrades including camping facilities, kiosk, road and signage upgrades, and installation of pontoons and wharves
  • Beautiful Bowen Stage One and Two involving the upgrade of the town’s main street to create a more amenable streetscape
  • PCYC Airlie Beach cyclone remediation and roof replacement
  • Proserpine Entertainment Centre replacement of the damaged 380 seat theatre. 
  • Airlie Beach Foreshore infrastructure upgrades and foreshore revitalisation
  • Bowen Administration Building refurbishment
  • Bowen Landfill Cells and Kelsey Creek Landfill
  • Planning for future expansion, and evaluation of landfill sites.

Our Role

Our team was engaged by Whitsunday Regional Council to project manage all phases of the various developments, from overseeing design to the handover to the operator at the completion of the construction phase.

Key Challenges

The remote Whitsunday location has provided a number of challenges for the project team, however our extensive experience on projects in North Queensland has ensured the program of works has been managed effectively.
