Beams Road upgrade (Lacey Road to Handford Road) - Carseldine, Fitzgibbon, Taigum, Zillmere

The fly-through video shows an aerial view of the Carseldine, Fitzgibbon, Taigum and Zillmere area with animations highlighting these suburbs. A red pinpoint is pointing towards Beams Road with white labels highlighting Gympie Road, Lacey Road, Cowie Road, Dorville Road and Handford Road. The fly-through then shows an animation of labels appearing above key landmarks, highlighting Carseldine Central, Carseldine Market, Carseldine Village, Carseldine Station, Holy Spirit College, Cabbage Tree Creek and St Flannan’s School.

The fly-through transitions from an aerial perspective to an east facing perspective above the Handford Road and Beams Road intersection. The fly-through moves from Handford Road west along Beams Road and transitions to a north-west facing perspective above the Cabbage Tree Creek shared path underpass. A yellow animated line travels along the Cabbage Tree Creek shared path and through the underpass before connecting back on to Beams Road in front of the Holy Spirit College.

The fly-through continues west along Beams Road towards Golden Place and Carselgrove Avenue. An animation of a grey rectangle indicating the Queensland Government Rail Level-Crossing Project starts from Golden Place and Carselgrove Avenue and finishes at the intersection of Plaza Place and Balcara Avenue.

The video then continues travelling west on Beams Road towards the Dorville Road and Beams Road intersection and the Cowie Road and Beams Road intersection. The fly-through continues travelling west on Beams Road towards the Lacey Road and Beams Road intersection. The video then fades out at the end of the project zone.

The map displayed shows an aerial view of Beams Road in Carseldine, with three coloured lines running west to east along Beams Road between Lacey Road and Balcara Avenue, and six text boxes pointing to various sections along Beams Road.  

The green line indicates where a new shared path, with a blue text box that reads new shared path for people walking and riding will be constructed from Lacey Road to Balcara Avenue. Upgrades to local services are indicated by an orange line and a blue textbox that reads service upgrades (Engergex, Telstra, NBN and other communications) will be undertaken from Lacey Road to Balcara Avenue.  A yellow line running along Beams Road between Cowie Road and Balcara Avenue indicates road widening, with a blue text box that reads sections of Beams Road between Cowie Road and Balcara Avenue will be widened to a median separated dual carriageway with four lanes.

A text box pointing to the Dorville Road and Beams Road intersection advises that an upgrade to the existing Dorville Road roundabout will occur and the roundabout will be replaced with traffic lights and signalised pedestrian crossings. A text box pointing to the Balcara Avenue and Beams Road intersection reads amendments to Balcara Avenue traffic signals, the western signalised pedestrian crossing (closest to Dorville Road) will be removed to optimise the function of the intersection.

A grey text box on the eastern side of the map points to a railway line, running north to south. This text box labels the Beams Road Rail Level Crossing Removal site, a TMR project, which includes upgrading the Balcara Avenue and Carselgrove Avenue intersections.
