Sudden closure of Story Bridge to cyclists shows ‘car is still king in Brisbane’

cross-posted from: https://slrpnk.net/post/20758539

Bike riders say they were given no notice about shutdown and have not been told when route will reopen, leaving many facing long detours or choosing to drive

More than a month later, at the time of writing, they remain shut without a date of reopening and the council is encouraging pedestrians, cyclists and scooter riders to “consider” using another bridge more than 2km away by bike.

What a dick move :(

Geeez, feel that could have been managed way way better, even a smidge of communications would have gone a long way!
