Springfield, Administrative division in Ipswich City, Australia.
Springfield is a planned urban area in Ipswich City, featuring residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and public spaces across its layout. The development was built from the ground up following a master plan that integrates different functional areas.
Development began in 1993 with the purchase of the land, leading to Queensland's first privately built city. A master plan was later formalized through zoning regulations that directed ongoing growth.
The district maintains 11 educational institutions, including primary schools, secondary schools, and a branch of the University of Southern Queensland.
The area connects to Brisbane via the Centenary Motorway and railway line, making it easy to reach for residents and visitors. Orion Shopping Centre serves as the main hub for shopping and everyday needs.
The Local Government Springfield Zoning Act of 1997 established specific planning regulations that determine development rights within this region.
