Cr Murphy says the budget will include funding for the North Brisbane Bikeway stage 5. The stage that was basically ready to go until they cut it last year so they could keep funding road widening projects.
Cr McLachlan complains that the State Government put housing on some former reserved land, rather than a bikeway, and claims that the NBB has created "considerable inconvenience" for residents.
He also talks about the benefits of the Brekky Creak green bridge, pointing to a post from the CBD BUG extolling its virtues, claiming that they are "turning their backs on their friends over there" (referring to Labor & the Greens). To my knowledge, the BUGs have never been partisan or aligned with a particular party. They just promote good cycling projects. If he perceives them as being more aligned with Labor and the Greens, that might say something...
The Greens being a party that cares about cycling? Say it ain't so!
