Precinct Completion Date Announced
The Allora Precinct Development Project continues to move forward, with construction progressing on delivering a revitalised community hub.
The project is due to be completed in July however the existing library will need to relocate to the new precinct with the community having access to the new library in August.
The redevelopment will combine Allora library and other key services under one roof, improving accessibility and creating a lively, central hub for all ages.
Southern Downs Councillor Carla Pidgeon said the precinct redevelopment highlights Council’s focus on delivering infrastructure that supports both wellbeing and sustainable growth.
“It’s encouraging to see the Allora Precinct Redevelopment taking shape as we move closer to completion,” Councillor Pidgeon said.
The Council appreciates the patience of the Allora community during construction.
Southern Downs Councillor Morwenna Harslett said the new library would offer more than just traditional services, becoming a central space for community connection and growth.
“From quiet reading corners to modern meeting spaces, this precinct will provide something for everyone - reflecting Allora’s unique charm while meeting contemporary community needs.”
The project also includes upgrades to the septic, heating and lighting systems, as well as creating a new after-hours back entry.
The Allora Precinct Redevelopment Project is proudly funded by the Queensland Government’s Works for Queensland program in association with Southern Downs Regional Council.
