History
A bridge over the South Pine River from Bald Hills to Strathpine was completed by 1866. Cobb & Co coaches travelled through the area from 1867.

In 1859 Tom Petrie acquired the lease of land in what is now the Petrie district. By 1870 a hostelry had been established on the land, as the location of the first change of horses for Cobb & Co coaches travelling north from Brisbane. The North Pine River was crossed at a ford nearby. In 1877 a low-level bridge was opened.

The Dayboro district was settled by Europeans from 1866. The railway did not arrive in Dayboro until 1920. A Motor transport service from Dayboro to Brisbane operated from the late 1920s, and a bus service from 1936. In 1937 this was extended to Mount Mee.

Timber-getters operated in the Mount Mee district from 1873. Before a sawmill was built locally the cut timber was transported to D'Aguilar and beyond.
