📣 Make your voice heard now for the future

Stand Up for the Northern Inter-Urban Break & the Pumicestone Passage

Protect What Protects Us — Have Your Say by 08 December

WHY THIS MATTERS

The Northern Inter-Urban Break (NIUB) is the vital stretch of green space separating the Sunshine Coast and Moreton Bay regions. It is more than a line on a map — it is a living landscape that:

  • Preserves the unique identity of both regions

  • Supports wildlife and natural ecosystems

  • Shields the Pumicestone Passage, one of South East Queensland’s most precious natural assets

  • Provides essential agricultural land, recreation areas, and visual green relief

But today, this irreplaceable buffer is under serious threat from inappropriate developments
Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever.

Development pressure is rising fast — and unless the community speaks up, the protections that keep this landscape intact may be weakened or lost.

This is our chance — possibly our only chance — to show decision-makers that the Northern Inter-Urban Break matters to the community.
