Where is the rail line from Calvert to Kagaru (C2K) proposed to be located?

The C2K rail line is proposed to be located between Calvert, south-west of Ipswich and Kagaru north of Beaudesert.

It will generally be located within the existing Southern Freight Rail Corridor, gazetted as future railway land under the Queensland Transport Infrastructure Act 1994 to provide a future rail freight corridor between the existing Queensland Rail West Moreton System rail corridor near Calvert and the existing Interstate Line at Kagaru.

Commencing at the existing West Moreton System rail corridor, the project traverses to the south-east, passing through the localities of Lanefield, Rosewood, Lower Mount Walker, Ebenezer, Willowbank, Purga, Peak Crossing and Washpool and then deviating through the Teviot Range and Undullah until it joins to the existing Interstate rail line.

The project would link to the proposed Inland Rail – Helidon to Calvert project at its north-west end and to the proposed Kagaru to Acacia Ridge and Bromelton section at its south-east end.

The project spans three local government areas including the Scenic Rim Regional Council and Ipswich and Logan City Council areas.

The Kagaru-end of the project is within the northern section of the Bromelton State Development Area.
