Hi,thanks for that useful movie. I have never heard about sth similar. Can you please share a logo of the app,as in play store nothing like it pops out. Theanks. WhaT is mullberry 😊?

You pretty much summed it up. Brisbane has great biking infrastructuce sometimes and scary roads for biking everywhere else. If they do bring in 30K speed limits they should also allow ebikes to be limited to 30Kph instead of 25 otherwise what is the point cars will drive faster than 30 and bikes will still be considered in the way.

That man says that 50Ks is too fast is out of his mind. I can cycle faster than that

like every Australian city Brisbane is just a sprawling mass of houses with no transport hubs. The sprawl of North Brisbane will probably reach Cooktown in 3 years.

With all due respect the whole Christmas season in Brisbane is very very dull and plain simple by seen just a tall christmas tree with visual kids lights show against a wall and the rest is just plain boring no christmas spirit around the queen street mall.... And if there is.. its just a metalic cone that resemble a christmas tree with a cartoon looking figuire..... Seriously i dont think queensland knows how to make a better true christmas for everyone not even for adults ? It always seems just kids... then you come across that every adult is so so sensitivity against youth crimes..... adults smoking here because there are kids there.. you cant be in a kids park because theres kids.. as if kids only rule but the rest of adults are like ant slaves. Dont take my word. But look out the picture frame and see the most rediculous laws australia has... Just rediculous... Many other countries do 100% way better christmas displays and free shows. If you can see that christmas decoration in brisbane looks so boring and dull.. you can see why the rest if as bad as not knowing how to bring true christmas alive other then baricate a park with a fence because now they force you to pay to get in or not get in.... This is a prison country. Well... thats what i heard... it feels like that. I mean i love brisbane i be back soon. I like your videos and everyone else. But im arguing about the poor graded of displaying events and the dull that has that boring feeling. Remember months ago i told you when i visited Brisbane i stay in the hotel and when i came out for a walk there was nothing out side shops all closed.. No one walking about other then a young lady with her dog walking about at southbank. Then brisbane let me know by making me go back to the hotel to watch tv and when i watch tv it was all just american shows and american serious. Nothing australian that has no feelings what so ever. Try figuire that out. its no wonder why the Aboriginals are not very happy with thew white ones.

Amsterdam is the gold standard. Safety is the big one, followed by practicalities. End of journey facilities need to become ubiquitous. And narrow strips of green paint on busy roads does not constitute infrastructure.

Escooters should be banned

Surely Sydney and Melbourne must be worse for congested traffic!

As soon as you get out to the burbs on a bike it is a Deathtrap

I dont like daylight saving, so im moving and love warm weather and laid back too❤

To bus to work would take me 90 minutes. It’s a 25 minute drive. Theres your answer.

The fact that these are the goals of council is huge it's thoroughly proven that more lanes = more traffic but car centric development is still so common

Great video! Another issue which wasn’t discussed in the video is the terrible states of our paths and walkways, especially in areas with high development where we have ended up with a hodgepodge of different materials of varying quality being mixed together. It would be great to see a video focusing on the underlying reason we have such a car centric culture in Australia - which really boils down to the lack of density and increased urban sprawl as we all want to aspire to our “Australian Dream” of a house with a lawn and big garage where we can park our cars.

One point that was not raised is that Brisbane is a CBD centric business hub, which is a major mistake imo. More and more high rises are going up in the CBD forcing even more demand on the already over-utilised traffic network. If the businesses located in the CBD were instead relocated to hubs all around the greater city then the roads would be better utilised / be more efficient, which in turn would pass on the benefits to all parts of life.

It's great to see you guys putting effort into this. 50c transport fares is also incredibly brave move. As I''m from Sydney, whenever I go to Brisbane and Gold Coast I just love how well maintained the roads are and behaviour of drivers (i.e. speeding is very rare to see). We (NSW) have a lot to learn from you guys and only recently I heard we're going to allow e-scooters finally. I've always wanted to ride these for quick trips to the shops where parking a car is the worst part of the experience.

Hey Adam, I thought I saw you this afternoon at the Edward St centre. Good to see you're still donating!

Born in Brisbane and I am so sick of it and over it 😒 oh just more traffic and more newbies thinking brisbane such a great place to flood out more people. After covid all the people came up here

Nihan ❤😂🎉

Have you done this video before?

How about we stop cramming 20,000 more people per year into Brisbane. It's utterly ridiculous considering the size of our state. Spread the population around. Then address public transport especially the rail network.

11:06 30 k’s this man never driven a car?

This is the contrast between Sydney and Brisbane.. We make metro.. While Brisbane waste so much money for empty bike bridge like in the end of the video they even need to called a BRT as a metro 😂😂😂😂.

LNP seems to be the only party with an actual plan to address public camping and youth crime, which are the issues plaguing Brisbane, in my estimation.

Globalist shill

I enjoy the content-thank you. However, I am concerned about any loss of vehicular access to the CBD and its surroundings as I am disabled and rely on being able to access the city and find adequate parking. I have noticed over the years a marked reduction in proper disabled parking, with considered easy access. As I discovered recently when I had to visit the Brisbane council, the disabled parking under King George Square is approximately 50 metres from the lift, and the distance to the council is over 120 metres. I also note that the disabled bay, which was next to the Queen Street Mall entrance, has been relocated much further along the street, making it totally impractical. Perhaps you might consider doing a piece on what the government, city, state and federal are doing to accommodate the needs of a disabled and ageing population when it comes to city and building access. Till then keep up the good work.

Active Transport, smart roads, or whatever you want to call it, WILL NOT do anything. Evidence? England.

It seems kids today have no legs….

Driver awareness and culture, rider awareness and culture - both need formal education and it’s terribly lacking. Fixing culture means formal education and with so many visitors and immigrants it’s not simple.

Drivers vs cyclists is the central problem and not easily resolved with the distance involved in many trips.

This is an excellent video! Well laid out and I hope more BCC and Qld Gov representatives see this 🤔

I'd love to see those tradies going on their jobs on bicycles in the morning. What percentage of people in Brisbane are actually office workers who can take showers at the workplace? What about parents dropping off in and picking up their kids from kindies and schools? And what percentage of them are taking public transport? Bicycles are not going to solve any problem at all because there is only a tiny proportion of population who can actually use them.

Really all this talk of public transport, personal transport, car transport is not going to solve the problem of commute times. People commute for a reason, and until there is social change that reduces the need to commute such distances it is just going to get worse. The population density of Brisbane is about 350 per sq km, Cities with great public transport have densities in the thousands. NYC for example 29,000. We need a large reduction in the commute distances by structural change in where we work, where we shop, where we get our services. 350 people per sq km can't afford the transport network that people dream of.

We went to The Gabba from Springfieild Central. Took a long round about way to get there. Going home we realised we wouldnt get back til 1.40 am. We ended up calling for a ride home.

Who cares about brisbane traffic. Its a small city with just roads on it. Just walk dont be a lazy old men :)

What are the average distance people cycle in cities with well developed active transport systems. Then consider topography and climate. You can’t make a direct comparison without looking at all the issues. Exactly how many people have the time and the fitness to cycle large distances up and down hills in 35 decree heat.

Only one ♀️ was interviewd in the "Good" section. And she was absolutely 💯 spot on re King Street. The men were all over the place and taking only their individual need into consideration

The video was filmed mostly during cloudly days. QLDers know 6 months of a year just sitting is hot enough to sweat if no rain.

Interviews are good but would have been better if you got on a bike or scooter and actually travelled around Brisbane showing us the good and the bad points

Nooo! The speed limits are already damn slow and they're getting slower and slower each day. incentivize more people to use motorbikes or scooters.

What a hock of shtt. U can't just say reduce the speed limits. Such a easy low class cop out. Build proper infrastructure to separate bicycles and cars. Old mate would be getting some of that revenue raising. They shouldn't be able to represent the city.

As someone who has commuted to work for the last 23 years my biggest issue is having trucks and bicycles in the left lane.

It all sounds great on the surface, but how practical is it really. What about grocery runs, school srop offs, family or multi group outings, and day trips. You cannot fit everyone or everything on an ebike, bicycle, or scooter. This is all part of the grander 2030 agenda for smart cities, not owning vehicles, and keeping everyone within a certain radius from their homes. I like your videos, but how much did you get paid to create and promote this particular one by the powers that be. That is why the production is so good. "Brisbane. Australia's new world city"

Lower speed limits will not fix the problem. You want people to leave their car at home, and that means getting people who live 20-30ks or more out to have an efficient, fast and easy way to work and back, and if it storm in the afternoon, have a backup to get home again. Biking in Europe works, for various reasons. Very good public transport and well connected transport on high frequency. You can take the bus, the train, the subway, a bike. In most Euro cities you can walk less than 1 city block and be at a metro station. Here I live in morningside, 4km from city, and on a friday, if I wanted to go into the city to a bar, to eat out, to clubs, the latest bus I can take is 7pm, anything after that there is no option, but to take the car or an expensive taxi. Taxi fairs is out of this world expensive. A uber from Kangaroo Point to my place is $25, I could have walked the 3km if I wanted to. What do you do with the bike once you in the city or wherever? Do you leave it on the pavement? is there a bike rack/park? And what do you with the stupid helmet our laws require us to wear? Europe does not require helmets for push bikes, escooters, ebikes etc. The buildings have several bike racks in many locations where you can park a bike. Where is that in Brisbane? In Europe the train stations, bus stations etc, have places to keep bikes so it makes transfer between your bike and public transport easy, instead of putting the bike on the bus or train and many europeans have several bikes on their name kept at several locations. So you want transfer stations or places close to reliable well serviced bus and train depots, so people can transfer there to/from their walking/biking to public transport. You want people to walk? No pedestrian will walk for more than 2km and even that is pushing the limits. So what other transport method will they then use? Bikes? Easy and cheap bike rentals? Bus? train? What about people who can't get onto a bike? There are tons of pedestrians in Africa and in Europe simply because they rely on Busses, trains to get them mostly where they need to be reliably, and that is not the case for Brisbane. Here bikes is a recreational tool for those who like exercise, no more than that. The whole idea of lower speed limits for "safety" is ridiculous. If you going to limit anything under 40, you might as well just block off the road to cars all together. I don't feel unsafe at all crossing roads here even with cars going 60, when back in africa, all local roads and streets is 60 and you have literally 100s of people jay walking in the middle of the street cris crossing. In Australia the anal police will book you a ticket if you did not cross the road at the traffic light or a designated crossing, so where then is the argument for reducing the speed limit then? If you do allow people to freely cross the road anywhere when it is safe to do so, then that is fine. And I emphasise, it is the responsibility of teachers and parents to educate people how to cross a road safely, and simply change a law which says whatever is in front of you have right of way, does not matter who or what it is. Cars, trucks do NOT have right of way just because they are in the road. Roads are shared surfaces.

Cr Ryan Murphy is at best misleading when he states the majority of the community are against the stage 5 design, the community consultation had majority of support. He appears to be narrowing his view of consultation community to the people that own property in the streets stage 5 will flow through. Honestly I think the LNP councillors want to say they support active transport but when it comes time to negotiating tough situations they are happy to fold.

Brisbane infrastructure is an absolute joke! M1 upgrades for last 15 years and still going but travel from Brisbane CBD to Broadbeach and see how it goes for you - an absolute joke! Oh and everyone love riding 6 months of the year in Brisbane don’t they … 🤦‍♂️ Cancel the Olympics !!!
