Public comment is now open on additional environmental information provided to the Australian Government to assist with the approval of the proposed $41.4 million Wangetti Trail development in Tropical North Queensland.

Interested parties can have their say until 5pm on 10 September 2021.

Member for Cook Cynthia Lui said development of the Wangetti Trail was an important part of the Palaszczuk Government's Covid-19 Economic Recovery Plan for tourism in the Far North.

"The proposed Wangetti Trail project will provide job opportunities for Traditional Owners during construction and once operational, which will be a great investment in our community's economic recovery from the pandemic," Ms Lui said.
