Bike riders say they were given no notice about shutdown and have not been told when route will reopen, leaving many facing long detours or choosing to drive
More than a month later, at the time of writing, they remain shut without a date of reopening and the council is encouraging pedestrians, cyclists and scooter riders to “consider” using another bridge more than 2km away by bike.
What a dick move :(
Queensland
The Florida of Australia, and beholden to the whims of the stupid
Bicycles are very common in Florida. It never snows and its very flat.
Rode my bike to work in 2012 in Brisbane. Drivers actively hated me for existing and I was really happy when the job ended because I genuinely feared for my life and was almost driven over during my last week. I was seemingly the only one peddling my bike just for transportation.
That said: I’m not surprised car is king in Brisbane.
