Completion Date15 June 2026

Council’s Gladstone Region Cemetery Plan 2022 guides Council’s delivery of cemetery services across the region to ensure that our cemeteries are appropriately planned, built, used and maintained for the long term.

The plan is used to develop guiding principles to enable Council to:

Meet the needs of the community,
Offer services which are affordable to all,
Ensure there is sufficient capacity to meet future demand in a way that is efficient and financially sustainable for both the community and Council.

Work to develop two sections within the Port Curtis Lawn Cemetery grounds has been undertaken. Works will now occur on drainage modifications as there is no stormwater drainage on-site.

More information

Works will involve remobilisation to site, surveying, strip topsoil and turf, shaping of ground, install and lay topsoil and turf, site clean up and demobilisation from site.

What to expect

Works are planned until about 15 June, site conditions and weather permitting.
Works will be scheduled to minimise disruptions to the cemetery's operations.
Public access to the cemetery will be maintained at all times.
Port Curtis Lawn Cemetery visitors are encouraged to follow signs and directions and be mindful of the works area.
