Bingegang, Queensland

Bingegang is about 613 km away from Brisbane.[3]

The Mackenzie River (the river) forms the northern and north-western boundary of the locality. Parker Creek forms part of the south-western boundary of the locality and then flows in a northerly direction through the locality to becomes a tributary of the Mackenzie River on the northern boundary (23.05°S 149.2°E / -23.05; 149.2 (Parker Creek (mouth))).[4] The south-eastern, southern and part of the south-western boundary of the locality roughly follows Return Creek (23.25°S 149.1666°E / -23.25; 149.1666 (Return Creek (mouth))), which is a tributary of Parker Creek.[5][6]

The Fitzroy Developmental Road enters the locality from the south (Jellinbah) and exits to the north-west (the locality of Mackenzie River).[6]

Bingegang Weir (23.0725°S 149.0338°E / -23.0725; 149.0338 (Bingegang Weir)) impounds the Mackenzie River. It is reached via Bingegan Weir Access Road.[7]

The land use is predominantly grazing on native vegetation with some cropping in the north and south of the locality.[6]

Bingebgang Weir was completed in 1975 and raised in 1998.[7]

In the 2016 census Bingegang had a population of 18 people.[1]

There are no schools in Bingegang. The nearest primary schools at Dingo State Schol in Dingo to the south and Middlemount Community School in Middlemount to the north-west. The nearest secondary schools are Middlemount Community School in Middlemount to the north-west and Blackwater State High School in Blackwater to the south-west. However, all of these schools are sufficiently distant that distance education and boarding schools would be other options.[6]

There is no public access allowed to the Bingegang Weir itself but boating and fishing is permitted if more than 200 metres (660 ft) from the weir (or as signed).[7]
