Moura Off-leash dog park
Work to establish an off-leash dog park in Moura will commence in February 2021.
The park will be located in a section of the disused rail yard between Gillespie St and Theodore Moura Road.
Late last year Banana Shire Council asked the community to select their preferred location for the park from two shortlisted options.
• Option A – The SES complex on the eastern entrance to town
• Option B – The old rail yard at the southern edge of town.
Of the 118 respondents who participated in the engagement survey 63.56% favoured Option B.
During the engagement many respondents voiced their concern over Option B being located too close to the Moura State School.
As a result of this feedback Council has moved the site north-east within the rail yard, closer to the CBD and away from the school.
The Moura off-leash park will be completely enclosed by a chain link fence and will include shade, bins and watering points.
