Have you seen the posts on Facebook or the Courier Mail about the soon to be dedicated busway that's going on Gympie Road? Or around how the road is specifically going to be widened to open a 24/7 bus lane?
The public are vehemently against more busways while also complaining about how congestion on Gympie Road, Lytton Road and Wynnum Road are constantly getting worse. It all really beggers belief.
We continue to throw money on making roads bigger but it doesn't help, all it means is more and more people move to the other end before the status quo reaches equilibrium again, and the cycle of road works starts again. This of courst assumes the road works ever finish. I'm looking at you, Kingsmith Drive, Mudeergaba Exit on the Gold Coast. All the while we're saying there's less commuters using public transport year on year than ever before.
This is a surprise to no one if you notice busses take an hour to travel 8km when you're contending with gridlocked cars for the entire distance.
Less you purchase a moped or a motorcycle and join me and the 2 Wheel Nomads that Brisbane's starting to enjoy.
The article is behind a pay wall, I'm not sure how to get around it.
