What is a Priority Development Area (PDA)?

Queen’s Wharf Brisbane was declared a Priority Development Area (PDA) by the Minister for Economic Development Queensland (MEDQ) on 28 November 2014.

Declaring a PDA facilitates the planning and delivery of the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane Integrated Resort Development and establishes the necessary policy environment to support the intended development outcome for the site.

On 28 January 2016, the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane (QWB) PDA development scheme was approved by the MEDQ. The final development scheme and submissions report are available on the Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning website.

Destination Brisbane Consortium’s Plan of Development was approved in December 2017.
