Council is advocating for the expansion of the Port of Bundaberg into a top tier Australian Port. Opportunity exists to expand the Port to encourage the export of the region’s rich agricultural and mineral endowments. In 2018, Bundaberg Regional Council, WBBROC and Gladstone Port Corporation identified the opportunity to grow 24,000 jobs across the region, if the Port’s potential could be unlocked.
