Future benefits
- You could travel between the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital and Kedron in almost half the time.
- Less pollution, congestion and traffic noise in the area, particularly on Bowen Bridge, Lutwyche and Gympie Roads and nearby streets.
- Public transport that is more frequent, reliable, comfortable and easy to use.
- Better connections to where people live, work and play.
Why do we need it?
- Traffic congestion will get worse on Lutwyche and Gympie Roads as the population grows and more and more people need to get to work and school.
- Busways are their own dedicated road so buses aren’t delayed by traffic congestion.
- It will encourage more people to use public transport if it’s quicker and easier than driving.
- It will take thousands of cars off the roads - for every full bus, there are 40 fewer cars on our roads.
