Legacy Way Workforce Parking Proposal - Lower Sir Samual Griffith Drive - Comment Period


Friends of ANZAC Park supports the below proposal. In fact this solution to the parking issue was suggested by us in our submission dated 24 November 2010 to the Co-ordinator General in relation to the Project.


Brisbane City Council is inviting community input on a proposal to use the lower section of Sir Samuel Griffith Drive, adjacent to Scenic Drive, for temporary workforce parking on Legacy Way. Please find attached a notification about the proposal.


Transcity, the contractor building Legacy Way, requires additional car parking for its workforce over the next two years, as construction activities continue. Under the proposal, the lower section of Sir Samuel Griffith Drive will close temporarily, for approximately two years, to through traffic and cyclists. This section of the road will be converted to one central lane with 150 car spaces to be line-marked on the existing road surface. It is important to note that access to and from the Brisbane Lookout at Mt Coot-tha, via Scenic Drive, will not change and will be maintained at all times.


The comment period for the parking proposal runs from Monday 2 July to Tuesday 17 July 2012. Members of Council's Legacy Way project team are available to meet throughout this period. To have your say, find out information or to arrange a meeting with the team, you can:
