Jimna tower assessment this month
THE Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAF) has confirmed that a condition assessment of the Jimna Fire Tower will take place in late March 2025.
A service provider has been engaged to carry out this assessment, which will inform the next steps for the tower project.
In a separate update, Queensland Hydro has notified the public on February 25 of increased vehicle and truck movements along Kilcoy Murgon Road, Sunday Creek Road, and Yielo Road starting in March.
The movements will involve site vehicles, quarry deliveries, and earthworks equipment. Motorists are advised to follow directional signage, use UHF channels, and allow extra travel time.
The Jimna Memorial Plot and Jimna Bora Rings projects are currently awaiting support from the Somerset Regional Council, following a request sent in September 2024, but no response has been received so far.
For visitors, the Jimna Visitor Information Centre offers a variety of services, including a museum, local maps, morning teas, and light lunches. For more details, contact Dave at 0438 726 570.
