Our team has been busy briefing Mayors and CEOs between Townsville and Mt Isa whose communities will benefit from the Queensland Government’s $5 billion CopperString 2032 project.

CopperString will connect Queensland’s North West Minerals Province to the national electricity grid via a 1,100 km high-voltage electricity transmission line.

QCN’s role is to provide improved digital connectivity for regional communities by utilising the fibre optic cables which supports the electricity distribution infrastructure.

Cloncurry Shire Council Shire Mayor Greg Campbell says his community wants the same access to fast and reliable internet services that people in South East Queensland enjoy.
