This has gotta be one of the stupidest ideas out of his mouth yet, and that's saying something

Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner has launched a renewed push to allow drivers to turn left at some red lights in Brisbane, which he spruiked as a practical solution to get congested traffic moving.
Turn left at red lights? Push to resurrect road rule in Brisbane
The Lord Mayor said the change would help keep traffic moving and “bring Queensland’s road rules into the 21st century”.

If Newcastle Light Rail has no haters I'm dead

There are bad transit projects.

And then there is spending $252 million for a 2.7 km tramway to replace a perfectly functioning railway to carry an impressive 2,900 people per day. Then getting an award for it.

This is the most Anglosphere thing ever.
Newcastle Light Rail is the first full catenary-free system in the southern hemisphere. Features like the revolutionary on-board energy storage and rapid charge system at the light rail stops saw the project awarded the Australian Construction Achievement Award in 2020. The light rail system runs 2.7km in length from Wickham to Newcastle Beach, incorporating six stops and a light rail vehicle maintenance facility along the way. The $252 million project, involving complex stakeholder interfaces and a busy urban environment, was delivered within the 60-month timeframe without compromising on quality or safety. This project, delivered under a Managing Contractor model, is an excellent example of meeting critical milestones safely through positive relationships and communication between contractor, customer, city, council, and community.

I love up to 60 minute delays on the Redcliffe Peninsula line. Delays on the Redcliffe Peninsula line make me stronger and more resilient. I can never be late to work due to delays on the Redcliffe Peninsula line. Being parked at Northgate for half an hour provides valuable meditation time. The Redc

I'm not gonna lie the wait for Cyclone Alfred is painstakingly long
A photo of two rainbow lorikeets standing on a balcony handrail, backs towards the camera. One bird is looking up while the other looks ahead. The background is blurred out of focus. Both birds appear to be wet A photo of a visually striking cloud formation rolling over a mountain in the distance. The sky is clearly clouded over, and the mountains fade into blue haze. In the foreground are houses and dense forest. A photo showing dense cloud cover and fog. A hill nearby is partially obscured, and everything behind it is invisible in the fog. In the foreground lies Queensland Rail Mayne Yard, which is almost entirely empty. A motorway interchange is partially visible to the left and is likewise almost deserted. A photo of a crow on a lamp post, taken from above. The crow and white lamp post are framed against vibrant green scenery below them. This photo has no relevance to the cyclone I just wanted to post it :)

The skydeck on the new casino is pretty cool (ignoring the casino part), but it really shows you how much of the Brisbane waterfront is sacrificed for cars
A photo of the northern bank of the Brisbane River. The Victoria Bridge is visible crossing over the river and the riverside expressway, which is elevated along the riverbank. Several on and off ramps come off of the expressway and connect to the CBD road grid. A CityCat ferry terminal peeks out from below the expressway and floats on the river.

Several buses cna be seeing using the bus only roads A photo of the new Neville Bonner pedestrian bridge crossing the Brisbane River and landing at sound bank.

I made a BlueSky Starter Pack!
I recommend following all of these accounts.

Let me know if I've left you off the list. I'm sorry, it wasn't deliberate, I promise. It's a bit fiddly and I'm just careless sometimes.
