The ideal balance of tranquil living within easy reach of services offered at Greenwood Grove is being further enhanced, with the State Government recently starting work to upgrade the Bruce Highway.
Improvements are being made between Sankeys Road and Traveston Road, some 11 kilometres from the new residential estate, which will move traffic further away from Greenwood Grove and ensure the idyllic lifestyle on offer remains undisturbed.
On completion, the Bruce Highway will also benefit residents who travel to Gympie for leisure and work by providing a safer and more relaxed journey.
The Queensland Government prioritised the upgrade of this section of the Highway due to safety and traffic needs and preliminary works began in July 2009 as part of the $613 million Bruce Highway upgrade between Cooroy and Curra.
The Highway provides direct access to the quiet town of Cooroy, in which Greenwood Grove is located.
Conveniently positioned in easy reach of the delights of Noosa and Tewantin, both just 15 minutes away, Greenwood Grove provides a relaxed lifestyle in a leafy, natural setting.
There are currently a range of homesites available in the community to suit many budgets and lifestyles, as well as two house and land packages to choose from.
For more information contact Tina on 5442 5833. You can also visit the land sales office at 22 Dunbar Court, Cooroy from 10pm to 5pm, Saturday to Wednesday.

Peet supports bushfire recovery in Victoria
Peet Limited has teamed up with Habitat for Humanity to provide practical help to bushfire-affected communities in Victoria, with a shipping container packed with tools recently delivered to the community of Traralgon.
The ‘Tool Library’ is filled with power tools and DIY equipment, which will be available to community members in Traralgon and surrounding areas to help re-build their homes following February’s devastating fires.
The Traralgon Lions Club has taken receipt of the Peet-sponsored Tool Library, which is one of five that will operate in areas including Flowerdale, Kinglake West, Strathewen and Marysville.
Community members will be able to register to use equipment free-of-charge to undertake reconstruction projects and, in time, restart hobbies, interests and DIY activities that have been interrupted by the bushfires.
Peet Limited Managing Director Brendan Gore said the project would provide significant benefits to the affected communities.
“Peet is focused on building new communities, so we’re pleased to help people affected by bushfires to re-build theirs,” he said.
“The libraries are stocked with a range of tools, including hand tools, chainsaws, digging tools, safety equipment, fencing equipment and more, which have been collated by volunteers at Habitat for Humanity.
“We’ve been pleased to be involved with the process and worthwhile project overall.”
After the need for the facilities has passed, the Tool Libraries will be donated to community groups that manage them during the life of the project.

Water all clear at Warner Lakes
Water at Warner Lakes has been given a clean bill of health, with the Queensland Government confirming high-fluoride water accidently released from a nearby water treatment plant never reached the estate.
In late April 2009, an incident at North Pine Dam water treatment plant resulted in small amount of water being released from the plant with excessive fluoride levels.
An independent investigation has found the affected water never reached the ‘trunk line’ that services Warner Lakes, clearing any concerns of the residents at Peet Limited’s popular Warner Lakes estate.
The Government has, however, confirmed the affected water may have been consumed by children at a YMCA camp and four houses on the treatment plant site for one hour, between 8am and 9am, on 30 April 2009 and possibly up to 500 residents in Joyner.
If you have any questions about this issue, please contact Queensland Health on 13Health (13 43 25 84).
