Local traffic update
Origin will start laying new gas pipelines in the area from February this year, so you may notice an increase in the number of trucks travelling from Callide to Miles along the Leichhardt Highway. These increased traffic movements will only be for a few months, so please take extra care to make sure you get where you’re going safely.
We’ll be doing our best to minimise any inconvenience to motorists, and we expect the extra activity to end by April. So please drive carefully during this time. If you would like any further information, please feel free to contact us.
To see our press advertisement with included maps of the increased traffic area please click here.

Origin offers two school-based industry traineeships
Two indigenous students – one from Roma and one from Chinchilla – have been awarded a two-year Origin traineeship as part of the Gas Industry Indigenous school-based traineeship program.
Roma’s Bree Jackson and Chinchilla’s Karly Bruggemann have been selected to undertake a two-year school-based traineeship completing their Certificate II in Business Administration. Bree will work in Origin’s Roma office, and Karly at Origin’s Talinga facility.
The Gas Industry Indigenous school-based traineeship program was formed in 2008 and is jointly run by Origin, Arrow Energy and Santos. Indigenous students in Years 10 and 11 in the Dalby, Miles, Chinchilla, Tara and Roma areas are encouraged to apply for the program during the first half of the year.
Students recently participated in a two day camp at the Coolumboola Environmental Education Centre, outside of Miles. The students were involved in a range of activities such as a low ropes course, swings and mazes, designed to challenge their abilities and demonstrate their capabilities.
