Logan City Council’s vision for the Albert River is set to become even clearer with
plans to demolish Luscombe Weir.
The project will remove a river barrier constructed in the 1950s to provide water for Beenleigh. It no longer serves that purpose.
The removal of the weir is a joint project with City of the Gold Coast as that section of the Albert River is the city border.
Removal of the barrier will also improve waterway health, enhance fish passage and eliminate future maintenance costs.
Infrastructure Chair Councillor Teresa Lane said the move is a win for the community and the environment.
