Towards 2050 Directions Paper
Over the past 8 months, we have been developing possible directions to facilitate growth in Cairns. The Directions Paper is based on what we heard from you through community and stakeholder feedback, and what we learnt from a range of technical inputs.
At the heart of our plan lies the future role and support of the city's most vital asset: its city centre. As the primary destination for tourism, employment, entertainment, accommodation, and lifestyle, our strategy encompasses various approaches to bolster the centre's significance and growth.
We invite you to read the Directions Paper (PDF 13.8MB) or the Executive Summary (PDF 1.5 MB), then take the short survey on our project website to share your views.
