Drawing inspiration from some of the world's most livable cities, Aura will enhance the unique liveability and lifestyle of the Sunshine Coast to create a city that is truly world class. Aura is a city designed for every facet of life. We have drawn inspiration from some of the world's most liveable cities to enhance the unique lifestyle that the Sunshine Coast offers; to create a city that is truly world class.

On completion, the city will include five public primary schools, four private schools and two public high schools and an array of community facilities including a library. Employment at Aura With a strong commitment to creating employment opportunities for the region, Aura is set to become the Sunshine Coast’s largest employment generator. A dedicated economic development strategy will target the creation of up to 20,000 direct jobs, creating long-term local employment opportunities for the region. An additional 20,000 jobs will be created during construction. Transport at Aura Aura is a connected city rich with possibilities and opportunities. Travelling in and around the city will be easy with an extensive integrated public transport system that will connect village hubs with district centres. Aura’s transport system will also link with future public transport services to provide residents with access to the wider Sunshine Coast region. Environment at Aura The Green Building Council of Australia has publicly endorsed Aura’s Master Plan, awarding the project a 6 Star Green Star – Communities rating. It is the first time an Australian city will be designed, developed and measured against this highly-coveted rating system, confirming that Aura will be one of the most sustainable residential communities in Australia and acknowledging the project as a world leader in sustainability and liveability.
