GREAT NEWS: Logan City Council Upgrading High Rd, Easterly St & Old Logan Village Rd Around Canterbury College
GREAT NEWS: Logan City Council Upgrading High Rd, Easterly St & Old Logan Village Rd Around Canterbury College
Improvement Works
Logan City Council is upgrading sections of High Road, Easterly Street and Old Logan Village Road adjacent to Canterbury College.
This project is jointly funded by both Logan City Council and the Federal Government, which has committed $2.5 million through the Urban Congestion Fund.
Project Details & Benefits
The project is designed to improve safety around the school and reduce congestion during school drop-off and pick-up times.
The project will:
• Widen sections of the roads to introduce dedicated turning lanes into the school to ease congestion.
• Provide formal new on-road car parking bays to ease congestion and reduce verge parking.
• Provide new footpaths and shared paths to support safer active travel for all users, especially students.
• Alter line markings and signage to improve traffic flow.
• Relocate some existing services.
• Install new street lighting to support active transport users.
• Install kerb and channelling (where required) to improve road drainage.
Design Update
The design phase of the project is almost finished with environmental and cultural heritage investigations now complete.
Consultation with key stakeholders, including Canterbury College, is ongoing to finalise the design phase.
The Logan City Council has sent letters to all residents in the area as per their distribution map.
The preliminary overall project plan and detailed plans of the individual work sections, are all displayed in this story for downloading or closer viewing.
You can find these proposed works plans for the project on the Logan City Council website here too - logan.qld.gov.au/roads-upgrade-plan.
Project Work Zone
High Road: From Sabre Street to just before the roundabout with Easterly Street.
Easterly Street: From just before the roundabout to Old Logan Village Road.
Old Logan Village Road: From Easterly Street to 157-159 Easterly Street.
Internal campus roadways and carparks are also being upgraded and streamlined – based on advice from professional traffic engineers, with support from the Logan City Council – to further reduce traffic congestion, in response to the changes to entrances and exits along Easterly Street.
Next Steps
Logan City Council will be back in touch with the College and the community, as the project moves into the construction phase, with more details - including timings and what you can expect.
They are still in the final stages of the design phase, but construction is expected to commence in late 2023, pending weather and site conditions.
Joint Canterbury & Logan City Council Activity Idea
Canterbury College and Logan City Council are also investigating a joint activity to provide spaces for native fauna amongst the project.
Some ideas so far have included nest boxes and tree planting, so stay tuned for more news on this front.

During this Friday's 3:30pm - 5:30pm rehearsal, our Canterbury Rock School will host a very special guest - award-winning composer Marty Hailey!
Marty works internationally as a composer, producer and musician, and has performed on West End and Broadway, in Las Vegas, across the UK, Europe, Australia and the South Pacific.
He has over 20 years' experience in the music industry, made over 70 records, produced and engineered countless single sessions, and written and produced soundtracks for broadcast, independent film and the stage.
In 2018, Marty was nominated as Rock Producer Of The Year at the Independent Music Awards in New York City.
Working from his studio over at Edinburgh in Scotland called Metro 13 Music HQ, previous clients have included: BBC TV and Radio, the Discovery Channel, Hopscotch Films, Arpeggio Pictures, Infinite Content, Baille Gifford, Pirate Productions, GNWTV and The Gate Worldwide.
His performance and recording credits feature a diverse range of names in international music, from Jimmy Somerville to Human Nature and James Blunt, and Ireland's Ronan Keating to Senegal's Pape Mbaye.
Marty is the musical director for international cabaret sensation Le Gateau Chocolat, The I Hate Children Children’s Show from San Francisco, and punk cabaret outfit The Little Death Club.
Marty was also musical director for La Clique's return to London's West End in 2019.
This dedicated professional musician plays electric and acoustic guitars, lapsteel and even the mandolin!
Additionally, Marty is a talented arranger and producer for small and large ensembles and recording projects - regularly scoring for brass, string quartets and small chamber groups.
Much closer to home, he actually played some parts in our 2021 Performing Arts Captain Briana Dinsdale's album Beginnings.
On Friday, Marty will be talking about his music industry experience and giving our students the opportunity to ask questions, and get to know more about music as a professional career.
He will also be working with some of our Rock School bands - giving them tips and advice for their upcoming performances.
Welcome to Canterbury Marty Hailey!
