Unlock the North - Federal Election 2025

Townsville Enterprise, in partnership with North Queensland’s regional councils, has unveiled the Unlock the North Federal Election Priorities. This comprehensive document outlines the strategic projects and policy priorities crucial for ensuring North Queensland’s long-term economic prosperity and unlocking its full potential for future generations. 

Key priorities leading up to the Federal Election include housing solutions, workforce attraction and liveability initiatives, critical infrastructure, and policies that foster business growth and economic sustainability. 

The Unlock the North initiative signifies a unified vision among North Queensland’s regional leaders. Input from Townsville City Council, Hinchinbrook Shire Council, Burdekin Shire Council, Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council, Charters Towers Regional Council, and industry members of Townsville Enterprise has shaped the document, which serves as a clear roadmap for the region’s future.
