It's also along an important corridor (Seattle/Portland/San Fran/LA/San Diego) and is along the west coast, which gets a lot of America's overseas trade. Brisbane, on the other hand, is sorta like Nashville, Indianapolis, maybe Austin. It's not as big as Sydney or Melbourne, but it's growing from the position Melbourne used to be in a few decades ago. The fact any large development is being done in Brisbane is, quite frankly, a feat. Especially something to do with public transport (absolutely has that in common with Austin and most of Texas...

The 1992 Summer Olympics of Barcelona are said to be an example of a city actually profiting from the Games. The organisers’ 900 million euro investment generated a direct 7 billion euro boost to the region and wider economic benefits exceeding 18.6 billion euro, according to an independent estimate. All 15 purpose-built venues remain in use today, as do 94 per cent of all permanent venues used at the Games. With the global exposure as the catalyst, it transformed the then relatively unknown city into a metropolitan world city confidentially listed as one of Europe's top destinations. Many have tried but failed to recreate Barcelona's success. Let's see if Brisbane can do it.

As someone who often watches The B1M and lives is Brisbane, i am quite happy to see a video on what i personally think is one of the best major projects happening in Brisbane right now.

As an Aussie and a survivor in Melbourne, Brisbane is probably the second best city in Australia, after Sydney. It's fun, exciting, interesting and warm even in winter. This is so great for the city, the investment going on there to make it even better is long over due. Having visited many, many times its fantastic that there is a train from the Airport into the city, in Melby you have to take a bus... One thing that I hope they do, is better integrate transport from the CBD into the middle of the Gold Coast. I love the GLink tram, but to take the train to and then the tram from Helensvale does take quite a while. A high speed, direct link would be the icing on the cake.

@ululukululu450 10 месяцев назад

Tickets from anywhere to Australia cost at least $1000. Flying into Mexico from the USA, spending a week in 5 star hotel eating the best food by the beach and flying back to the USA costs around the same. Yah, no thanks. I will stick with Mexico. Plus everything in Mexico is cheaper than in Australia. Absolute no brainer.

I live in Brisbane and Study on the Gold Coast and 15 years ago there were areas of bushland that are now full on satellite cities. Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunshine are fast becoming the place to be in Australia for Employment. Its still not Sydney or Melbourne but is on par to become a True International city.

Questions about the mezzanine: Is it the whole length? Is it thus an alternative to the trains? Will bicycles be allowed as well as pedestrians? Will there be a charge to access the mezzanine?

@KhanPiesseONE 10 месяцев назад

The mezzanine is only for station caverns. The train tunnels connecting the stations, will only have enough room for trains, they are quite narrow tunnels. To access the mezzanines at train stations, you may need to tap on with a Go card or with a debit card, but you could tap off when you leave and not be charged.

@chadii195 10 месяцев назад

Mezzanine spans all of cavern (approx 200m). It will be a walk way above platforms. Access to platforms from mezzanine will be be via escalators and lifts.

@Hyakman5408 11 месяцев назад

I hope this trail project serves Brisbane well for many decadesto come :) The light rail system being built where I live (Seattle area) is a joke. Billions over budget and years behind schedule, and the portion that is open is ineffective and inefficient when compared to how it was sold to the taxpayers.

@KhanPiesseONE 10 месяцев назад

I thought that Seattle had good public transport but I just used that traveltime website to see how far on transit you can get from Union station within 45 mins compared to Brisbane's main station, Roma St Station. Wow Seattle has it bad... I thought it was better than that. I hope it gets better, I have heard there are some big plans.

@growdaddy4281 10 месяцев назад

Brisbane's Cross River fail is over budget by $2.4 billion just like Seattle, this video just conveniently fails to mention it. Not to mention that the Queensland transport minister tried to hide the cost blow outs too

@matthewivanjudeponciano1354 11 месяцев назад

Impressive technology! esp. that box girder technology is also applied in underground construction. These projects usually hava a greater impact because it helps save the environment through less car dependency, cleaner air and less car lanes and more efficient land use. Investing in long term public transportation projects is not a waste of money but worth every cent. I hope you feature Philippines North South Commuter Rail (NSCR) in the near future.

@TheB1M 11 месяцев назад
