This bikeway is one of the most highly utilised pedestrian and cyclist (both recreational and commuter) routes in south east Queensland. Due to sustained growth in usage since its construction in 1988, the Bicentennial Bikeway is now operating at full capacity. The proposed diversion works project is critical to the completion of the Bicentennial Bikeway which is being progressively widened from Toowong to the CBD. This upgrade aims to meet the future demand for both pedestrians and cyclists and provides improved access to the Go Between Bridge Bikeway. The diversion works will see improvement to the city cycle network through pathway upgrades and widening, improved lighting and on-road cycling facilities. To enable the Bicentennial Bikeway section east of the Go Between Bridge to be upgraded, a diversion path is required on the southern side of the Brisbane River. The proposed diversion works project, provides an alternative travel route to the CBD during the construction of the main bikeway providing access from the Bicentennial Bikeway to GOMA and Southbank and from West End to the CBD.

Interested parties may contact the editors. Silvia Micheli, University of Queensland Brisbane, Australia’s New World City: The Making of Public and Institutional Spaces in South Bank from Expo ’88 to the G20 In 1988 Brisbane hosted the Expo as part of its Australian Bicentenary celebrations. Organised at South Bank, it was an international event that proved a turning point in the city’s development. Positioned on the Brisbane River, in front of the CBD and next to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, the area became an urban experiment, testing how Brisbane would respond to a central area dedicated to recreation and mass consumption. South Bank Parklands has grown in concert with the adjacent institutional precinct of South Brisbane dominated by the Queensland Cultural Centre, to an extent that today the two areas are recognised under the unifying name of South Bank. Its complexity is generated by the alternation of institutional buildings, leisure structures and public spaces aligned along the river with excellent infrastructure connections.

  • An Investigation of the Causes of Over-Optimistic Patronage Forecasts for Selected Recent Toll Road Projects 8 December 2011
    Revised Final Report Department of Infrastructure and Transport An investigation of the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts for selected recent toll road projects 8 December 2011 Executive Summary The Australian Government Department of Infrastructure and Transport is investigating the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts with the purpose of identifying potential remedies. This report contributes to that investigation via case studies of selected toll road projects to identify challenges in processes and opportunities for improvements, so that lessons from the past may guide practice in the future. Two major cases CityLink (Melbourne) and Lane Cove Tunnel (Sydney) with two supporting cases Westlink M7 (Sydney) and the Go Between Bridge (Brisbane) were chosen for coverage of geography, timing, physical characteristic and forms of funding. Desktop research supported by interviews with stakeholders covering the spectrum of stakeholders in the road procurement process found: PPP bidding processes for toll roads lead to selection of the most optimistic of optimistic forecasts: Government forecasts, erring on the high side to avoid under-estimating environmental impacts, may set a forecast ‘floor’ Traffic modellers in bid teams produce a ‘low’ forecast above this floor for debt lenders and a ‘high’ estimate of possible returns for those taking equity Equity forecasts are submitted with bids and the highest forecast almost always wins. Four-step models used in most toll road forecasts: Have some intrinsic positive biases when modelling toll road patronage More importantly they provide many opportunities for optimistic selection of parameters Optimism can more easily occur in the absence of data for example about values of time or traffic flow by day of week and month of year; and Estimates of ramp up in traffic after opening may be especially subject to optimism; and/or Deliberate selections to raise forecasts, such has high growth rates for population or the economy, may be applied.

  • The Goodwill Bridge, Brisbane
    More than just a pedestrian link – The Goodwill Bridge, Brisbane I.D. Ainsworth and P.A. Burnton SYNOPSIS Since opening in October 2001, the Goodwill Bridge has attracted large numbers of pedestrians and cyclists, both commuters and casual users eager to take advantage of the new link formed between Southbank and Brisbane’s CBD. The spectacular steel and concrete bridge has a unique form that was initially established in an architectural concept design competition. The winning concept broke the 460m long bridge in to visually different sections to enliven the journey for users with the middle section being an extraordinarily slender arch that spans over the navigation channel of the Brisbane River. The daring form has generated great interested in the previously neglected southern end of Southbank and has revitalised QUT’s Gardens Point campus. The visual and functional contribution that the bridge makes to the urban fabric of inner city Brisbane has been recognised in awards for architects Cox Rayner, and the quality of the engineering design and construction techniques has been recognised by a series of industry awards for Engineers Arup and contractor John Holland. The paper outlines the main features of the design, and describes the role that close cooperation between designer and contractor played in the successful prefabrication and erection of the bridge. The paper also provides insights in to the challenges and rewards of working with architects on infrastructure projects that have traditionally been driven primarily by engineering considerations. 1 INTRODUCTION Infrastructure projects are commonly designed and constructed using well-established precedents, with the basic form of the construction determined largely by engineering considerations and basic functional requirements.
