Port of Brisbane has shown off fly-through footage of its $158 million Brisbane International Cruise Terminal.
“In what is a great example of the Palaszczuk Government working with the private sector, we are ensuring jobs, and economic opportunities are set to sail our way,” said Hon. Cameron Dick, Minister of State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning, Queensland Parliament.
“The cruise ship industry is booming worldwide, and this new terminal will help secure our slice of the market by providing a dedicated facility to accommodate larger ships that are unable to dock at Portside.”
The Brisbane International Cruise Terminal is expected to generate approximately $5 billion for Queensland over the next 15 years, creating more than 240 jobs a year over its two-year construction period, and then an additional 49 operational jobs for the next 20 years.
The terminal will launch in 2020.
