Construction
Our largest industry
Construction ready
Continued growth of our largest economic sector is fuelled by the Gold Coast’s location in South East Queensland. Access to local supply chains enables the construction sector to sustain its growth trajectory.
Billions of dollars are committed to major infrastructure, upgrading our road and transport network including Gold Coast Light Rail extensions and three new rail stations.
Construction supports thousands of jobs through civil construction works on new residential and industrial estates, commercial developments, schools and retail facilities to support regional population growth.
The Yatala Stapylton Industrial Area Expansion Investigation is underway to identify an additional 50 years of industrial land supply for future industry use.
I love doing business on the Gold Coast. Life’s a lot easier for me. On the Gold Coast the planners and council are fair.
