Bruce Highway) from Brisbane to the North Coast (now the
Sunshine Coast). Burpengary is still home to a functional truck weigh-bridge.
Burpengary has been a predominantly blue-collar suburb with a significant proportion of the population directly employed in a labouring or trade-related jobs.
However, with expanding planned communities, easy access to the M1 and council approving plans for mini city initiatives, more and more families are moving to the locality including those in the professions. This is fuelling economic growth with the expansion of the shopping precinct, local services and increasing pressure on the local transport infrastructure since 2005. Source: Wikipedia
