Wynnum Centre Suburban Renewal Precinct

Wynnum Centre will be a vibrant and welcoming bayside village where people live, work and connect.

Brisbane is one of Australia’s fastest-growing capital cities and we’re working with communities to help deliver new homes sooner while protecting the lifestyle that makes our city so special.

Wynnum is one of Brisbane's most popular bayside suburbs. The draft Wynnum Centre Suburban Renewal Precinct Plan outlines an exciting long-term vision to enhance the heart of Wynnum - from Byrneside Terrace to Clara Street, along Tingal Road, Colina Street, Bay Terrace, and the area surrounding Wynnum Central Station.

This plan aims to strengthen connections, support local business, and celebrate Wynnum’s unique bayside character.

We're working with the community to create a new suburban renewal precinct to:

embrace the area's bayside character
expand opportunities for the local economy
allow more housing to be built
maximise connections to public transport and the foreshore.

Following technical investigations and initial ideas from the community, the draft Wynnum Centre Suburban Renewal Precinct Plan is now open for community feedback. It includes supporting updates to the Wynnum-Manly neighbourhood plan. Have your say now.

Following review of submissions, the precinct plan will be refined and adopted into Brisbane City Plan 2014 (City Plan) to guide and assess property development.

It’s about striking a balance to encourage more homes sooner in well-serviced areas while protecting Brisbane’s incredible lifestyle.

Talk to a Planner sessions

Book one of the free sessions to speak with our planners about the proposed changes:

All sessions will be held at Wynnum Community Centre at 105 Florence Street, Wynnum.

Following initial community feedback this year, the draft precinct plan proposes changes to City Plan including:

zoning and building height changes to support more residential and commercial buildings
design provisions to help revitalise shopping, dining and entertainment areas, and support new arcades and walkways
design provisions to ensure development contributes to the local identity and our subtropical climate
car parking provisions to reflect the area's high level of transport accessibility.

While proposed changes to City Plan will affect some properties (e.g. changes to zones, overlays, codes, or types of development applications required), all residents and property owners in the area are encouraged to read the draft plan and have their say.
