Brisbane lord mayor Adrian Schrinner says to finally solve traffic congestion in Brisbane’s western suburbs planners need to get over the river and a rail line.
Addressing traffic congestion around Indooroopilly would not only require a bridge over the Brisbane River but a second bridge over a rail line, according to Brisbane lord mayor Adrian Schrinner.
“As part of the study we are doing into the Walter Taylor Bridge and the surrounding corridor, one of the things that has become really clear is that if we were considering a bridge we would really need to consider two bridges,” Cr Schrinner said on Wednesday. “It is one of the options. The portion of this site that currently holds the driveway in and out of the site is a designated transport corridor.”Map showing where a future bridge could go on land zoned as a transport corridor between Indooroopilly train station and former interrogation cells at Witton Barracks on the river. It shows the alignment of Lambert Road and Station Road as a possible rail overpass.
