The LNP has committed to deliver new boating infrastructure to improve access to the Noosa River if elected.

“Current facilities are at, or over capacity and this has led to flow-on impacts in terms of parking and other congestion issues around existing boat ramps,” LNP Noosa candidate Clare Stewart said.

Ms Stewart said the investment would be the first made by a state government to expand boating infrastructure in Noosa in more than 30 years.

Andrew McCarthy of the Noosa Boating and Fishing Alliance welcomed the announcement and said it would increase the capacity of boat users to safely access the Noosa River for fishing and recreation.

“Noosa has been crying out for this investment from a state level for decades,” Mr McCarthy said.
