The main thoroughfare of Walkerston is the Peak Downs Highway, which enters from Alexandra in the east, cuts through the town’s centre and exits toward Greenmount, while the settlement itself sits between the Pioneer River to the north and Bakers Creek, which it straddles for about three kilometres. Heritage sites such as the Walkerston State Butcher’s Shop on Dutton Street lend a historic streetscape to the predominantly residential town.

The highway provides a direct link 14 km south‑west of Mackay, and the Pioneer Valley railway once reached Walkerston, reflecting its long‑standing role in regional transport. Local amenities include a Mackay Regional Council library on Dutton Street, a supermarket and three bars, including a sports club, serving the community’s daily needs.
