History
Springfield Lakes is one of the suburbs created within Greater Springfield,[3] a 2,850 hectare site which is Australia’s largest master planned community.[4] For comparison purposes this is more than half the size of Cairns. The suburb was specifically located to reduce growth along the Brisbane-Gold Coast corridor in South East Queensland.
Geography
The Centenary Motorway forms the north-western boundary of the suburb. The Springfield railway line runs immediately parallel and north of the highway.[5]
Transport
The suburb is serviced by bus route 522 which links Goodna station with Springfield Central station.[6] Apart from bus services, the suburb also has access to rail services with the northern part of Springfield Lakes being serviced by Springfield railway station while the southern part of the suburb is serviced by Springfield Central railway station across from Orion Springfield Central shopping centre.[7][8]
