Oonoonba, Queensland
[1] Oonoonba is approximately 5.8 kilometres (3.6 mi) by road south from Townsville central business district.The suburb is bounded to the north by the Ross River, to the east loosely by Gordon Creek, to the south by the North Coast railway line and to the west loosely by Northshore Circuit.[3] Oonoonba was once considered isolated from Townsville, but subdivision development at neighbouring Idalia has filled the void between and has made Oonoonba become part of the contiguous urban area of Townsville.The areas in the north and east of the suburb along the river are not used as they are marshland.[3][4] South Townsville Road (Abbot Street) runs through the suburb from south (Idalia/Cluden where it connects to the Bruce Highway), running parallel and to the immediate east of the railway line, exiting the suburb as it crosses the Ross River on Rooneys Bridge to Railway Estate.
