Port channel widening project receives State approval

The Port of Townsville’s $193 million channel-widening project has been given the go-ahead by the State Government following the approval of its environmental impact statement.

The channel widening proposals will now be assessed by the Federal Government under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999, which will investigate any potential impacts to the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area.
