Pipeline underway to link North Queensland

Stretching from Moranbah to Townsville the pipeline is being laid at about four to six kilometres each day after construction began this month.

The associated upgrade of the 160MW Yabulu Power Station is also running to plan with the plant expected to be fully operational by the end of 2005.
