Redevelopment proposed for Delamere Air Weapons Range

DELAMERE Air Weapons Range is the primary range for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). Following a review in 2012, several deficiencies were identified. The Public Works Committee is, therefore, conducting a public hearing into the proposed redevelopment works.

Works will include repairing infrastructure and roads, upgrading external boundary fencing and relocating facilities to increase space for target and weapons training. 

The project is expected to cost $74.4 million (excluding GST). Full details on the project are available on the committee’s website: www.aph.gov.au/pwc

Public Hearing Venue: Metro Hotel Ipswich International
Date: Wednesday, 4 November 2015
Time: 10.30 – 11.30 am

Members of the public are welcome to attend.

NB the Public Works Committee is neither involved in the tendering process nor the awarding of contracts. Enquiries on those matters should be addressed to the Department of Defence.
