Not the most exciting post but our AGM is coming up and we're stoked to announce our guest speaker is ABC's own Kenji Sato! Come along, have a beer and hearwhat it's like being the only journo to ride a bike to pressers. 12:30pm Saturday 25 September at the Burrow in West End.

One of our local volunteers was livid when they saw the poster up. They made a few changes.

Stockwell's project adaptively reuses the heritage factory facades around the corner, adds greenspace and delivers 132 new homes and 2 storeys of retail and commercial space in one of Brisbane's highest demand areas.

If you don't know West End too well, here's the local area. The site's currently a carpark, gym and warehouse. Across the road is newly expanded state school and the new police station.

Some West End residents are railing against a medium density development in their inner city suburb, just minutes from the CBD. It's sad that they're doing it at one of our favourite bars too. 😭

We're also facing a situation where the Brisbane Central Traffic Area, which governs on-street parking restrictions, don't align with the City Frame which governs off-street parking minimums.

And while this proposal just changes the boundaries that apply to existing rules, there's still a lot of work to get those rules up to scratch. To start, the reduced minimums within 400 metres of a public transport hub STILL don't apply to residential developments!

Even more surprising is City West around Petrie Terrace, Caxton Street, Victoria Barracks and the Normanby, which is literally a ten minute walk to our CBD and our city's two largest parks, not being included in the car-free City Core!

Council's proposal suspiciously leaves out some very well-connected neighbourhoods with frequent public transport options, local pedestrian and cycling links and nearby shops and schools- notably New Farm, Stones Corner, Paddington and St Lucia - from changes...

🚫🚗🧠 NO PARKING MINDSET 🚫🚗🧠 Last week, Greater Brisbane wrote to support Brisbane City Council's expansion of parking maximums to more of our inner city. But this is just scratching the surface of what we need to do to make our city walkable by the 2032 Games.
