$54 million waste of money? The Indooroopilly Bikeway saga | COME RIDE WITH CHRIS!

Want to come for a ride with me? Come along to the Indooroopilly Bikeway Community Ride, hosted by Michael Berkman, MP for Maiwar, on Saturday April 1, 2023 at 8.20am: https://www.michaelberkman.com.au/com... In 2016, the Brisbane City Council proposed building the Indooroopilly Bikeway, providing a much-needed connection between the Centenary Bikeway and the University of Queensland Bikeway at St Lucia. The University is the second biggest commuting destination in Brisbane after the CBD, and many students and staff ride there. However, getting there from the western suburbs was a choice of a treacherous ride along Radnor Street and Lambert Road, or ride an extra 4-5km to go via the inner western suburb of Toowong. The Indooroopilly Riverwalk was the first stage built, a complex in-river solution needing to withstand the force of Brisbane's river in flood, a test it withstood in 2022. However, despite urging from the local community and cycling advocates like myself, Council did not proceed with planning the other sections of the Indooroopilly Bikeway while they undertook construction of the Riverwalk. Now, two years after opening, both ends of the Indooroopilly Bikeway are seeing more cycling traffic, but they are not up to scratch.
