Ipswich City Council is building a new state-of-the-art Southern Resource Recovery Centre (SRRC) that will improve waste management in our growing city.

With the Southern area of the city one of the fastest population growth areas and the existing Refuse and Recycling Centre at Riverview currently operating at over capacity, a facility is needed in the region to provide the waste management services that our community need.

The new facility will be located at 831 Redbank Plains Road, Redbank Plains.

A new animal management facility will also be located on the site to move the facility from its current flood prone location in West Ipswich.

Council has commenced drafting the design of the new SRRC, and would like to thank the community for your input on this project so far. A summary of the community feedback can be seen here.
