For those who travel along the Teewah Beach to Double Island Point, we wish to highlight that the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service intend to remove the Teewah Airfield located between Lake Cootharaba and the beach. This should raise serious concerns for everyone who lives and visits the area. The airfield is a critical asset enabling emergency evacuation for urgent medical cases, or in times of bush fire, cyclone or flood. This 79 years old grass airfield has been providing life-saving support to this isolated community for many years, and recently during the 2019 bushfires served as a staging area for the emergency services. At that time 13 fire-trucks and two helicopters utilised the airfield to come to the aid of the people at Teewah and the North Shore area. At that time, the emergency services had evacuated the population of Teewah who were standing on the beach and were terrified. This airfield also serves the same life saving purpose for visitors to the area. With such a life-saving asset it would be mad to close it, but that is the ill-considered plan of the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service.
