RAIL TRAIL: Connecting Canterbury's Bethania Train Station To Logan Village - Your Feedback PLEASE + OPPOSITION VIEWPOINT
RAIL TRAIL: Connecting Canterbury's Bethania Train Station To Logan Village - Your Feedback PLEASE + OPPOSITION VIEWPOINT
Hello Canterbury College,
Please see the attached letter regarding the recent announcement about the Bethania To Logan Village Rail Trail.
I would greatly appreciate your students, families and staff getting involved in the 'Have Your Say' Survey included in this letter, which opens from THIS Wednesday 31 August 2022 for six weeks.
This letter PDF explains the survey and includes the survey weblink itself which is repeated HERE - Bethania to Logan Village Rail Trail | Have Your Say Logan City.
There is also a Q&A PDF document attached, which answers the most common community questions about the project, and also includes the survey weblink.
The original Rail Trail project story appears below from late June this year, as we head into this important community consultation phase.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Cr Laurie Koranski | Councillor for Division 4 | Chair of City Lifestyle Committee | Logan City Council

All Aboard Rail Trail - By Logan City Council News, Published: Tuesday 28 June 2022
The highly-anticipated Bethania to Logan Village Rail Trail will connect communities and provide a new recreational offering for families.
The Queensland Government has pledged $3.5 million towards the $7 million Bethania to Logan Village stage of the project.
Logan City Council will honour its promise to match the state’s contribution.
The new trail stage will link with the existing Logan Village to Yarrabilba Rail Trail, built on a spur line of the de-commissioned Bethania-to-Beaudesert rail corridor.
City Lifestyle Chair, and Division 4 Councillor Laurie Koranski said the popular walking, jogging and cycling route would be welcomed by residents.
“This is an exciting project that provides a lifestyle and economic boost to the areas it connects,” Cr Koranski said.
“The Logan Village to Yarrabilba Rail Trail has been well supported since it opened and I know people will enjoy this latest stage.
“Council can now begin consultation with the community and I look forward to hearing feedback regarding this exciting project.”
Division 6 Councillor Tony Hall said the trail would increase recreational options for Bethania residents.
“Whether you’re cycling or out for a weekend adventure with friends or family, this new corridor will be a great way to get outside and enjoy nature,” Cr Hall said.
“Attractions like this boost the liveability of our suburbs and provide practical non-vehicle pathways to get around.”
Member for Logan Linus Power said the project is another great attraction for the region.
“Funding from the Queensland Government announced in the recent State Budget will enable the next stage of this this great project to get underway,” Mr Power said.
“The trail will attract people to the City of Logan and the local economy will also prosper by connecting more people with the shops, businesses and services along the way.”
Logan City Council’s record $1.014 billion ‘Building on today for a brighter tomorrow’ included a $241.5 million investment in roads, drainage and transport infrastructure such as cycleways and pathways.
RAIL TRAIL OPPOSITION VIEWPOINT
First up I have to say, we are not against walkways per se.
I am only referring to Logan City Councils’ plan with millions of State and Local Government funding to continue the Logan Village - Yarrabilba - Bethania “Rail Trail” (No. 10 on their list of 16) through the middle of our fenced and gated ‘Independent Living’ community; opening us up to the public to walk, cycle, ride horses or ride trail bikes along this section of the Rail Trail.
Imagine a lopsided square, with the old, decommissioned rail line running from one corner to the other, with Bethania Village in one triangle and Waterford in the other.
This ‘walkway’ will travel through what are two securely fenced and gated communities, who currently access facilities on both sides, and have access to: a Church, the only Bus Stop, and an Aged Care Facility where spouses and friends reside.
The Council speaks about the trail running through attractive bushland, with great scenic country views.
But they fail to mention that once it passes behind Canterbury College, it will continue through what is virtually a suburb of over 500 houses, where it will pass less than 100 metres from many front/back doors, occupied by the most vulnerable of their constituents.
We ask them to PLEASE GO AROUND US!
Why are a few thousand people who MAY use the Rail Trail more important than us – over 600 aged people who are about to have our secure, independent and safe lifestyle ripped away from us.
Sincerely
Janet Heath
Palm Lake Resort
Prayers On The Death Of Queen Elizabeth II
Prayers On The Death Of Queen Elizabeth II
In this moment of sorrow, the Lord is in our midst and consoles us with his word:
No eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the human heart conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him. (1 Corinthians 2 Verse 9)
Blessed are the sorrowful; they shall be comforted. (Matthew 5 Verse 4)
Into your hands, O Lord, we humbly entrust Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
In this life you embraced her with your tender love, and opened to her the gate of heaven.
The old order has passed away, as you welcome her into paradise, where there will be no sorrow, no weeping nor pain, but the fullness of peace and joy, with your Son and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever.
All: Amen.
Heavenly Father, into whose hands Jesus Christ commended his spirit at the last hour.
Into those same hands we now commend your servant Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, that death may be for her the gate to life, and to eternal fellowship with you; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.

Horizon Educational Visits Canterbury College
Horizon Educational Visits Canterbury College
Horizon Educational recently launched their first Asia-Pacific Office in Ashmore, Queensland.
They recently visited our College to promote the Horizon Hydrogen Grand Prix (H2GP) Program to our students.
The full story written by Horizon Educational can be found below and at THIS WEBLINK...
Signing Up For The H2 Grand Prix In Australia
Lisa Sullivan has been busy in Australia over the past several weeks talking to schools about the H2GP program, and on July 29th after talking with her Canterbury College in Eastern Australia signed up for the 2022-2023 H2GP season!
The college has decided to put together one H2GP team so far, but the total number may rise over the next few weeks.
The H2GP information was presented to about twenty-five students plus college professors, and in a Q&A session after Lisa’s presentation many of the students stayed to find out more about the program.
The student’s excitement about the H2GP initiative was almost palpable, and Lisa’s visit has already garnered additional interest in the H2GP program beyond Canterbury College.
Lisa is continuing to visit schools and colleges across Eastern Australia in order to get at least twenty teams to sign-up for the 2022-2023 H2GP season, and we will be releasing more updates from Australia over the coming weeks as Horizon Educational continues its expansion into Australia.
Included are some photos that members of Canterbury took during Lisa’s visit along with a video where students took the wheel of the H2GP car.
(California teams look out! The Canterbury students look like they are eager to get to the H2GP World Cup.)
