The story bridge paths used by about 4000 walkers, bicycles and scooter riders were suddenly closed five months ago.
Story Bridge Travel Alliance announced on Sunday (August 24th) a next protest fashion march.
On the same day, the Brisbane Moda Festival plans to hold a parade at the Kangaroo Point Bridge from 10.30.
Kathryn Good, an active travel alliance organizer of the story bridge, said that the vehicles that will usually use the shared paths of the story bridge are forced to deviate.
“If the Council can launch the red carpet in Kangaroo Point Green Bridge for a fashion show, they can make room for thousands of people just trying to start work,” he said.
When the paths were closed, they wanted a traffic strip to be transformed into an active travel strip and organized a “bicycle bus öne from the bridge on weekdays.
The Council began to establish steel beams and reinforced polymer flooring, and warned that some night traffic strips will be needed. Try to reopen at least one path before the end of the yearHe hopes that the federal government will help to pay a complete restoration of the bridge.
