Council has developed the Transport Plan for Brisbane - Strategic Directions (Transport Plan). This is a guide to the evolution of our city's transport network over the next 25 years as Brisbane grows and evolves.
Traffic and transport
Brisbane City Council is getting you home sooner and safer by delivering better flowing roads for Brisbane and keeping the suburbs moving. Across the city, we’re taking action to reduce congestion, improve safety and traffic flow and build better transport networks to meet the needs of our beautiful city, now and into the future.
We are creating more travel options, including new active transport bridges and the turn-up-and-go Brisbane Metro, which will revolutionise public transport in our city. We're also improving more than 1000 local roads to create smoother streets and creating more dedicated bikeways and walking options. Council is committed to providing world-class public transport with more buses for the suburbs, expansion of the CityCat fleet and subsidised public transport and free services such as CityHopper ferries and city bus loops.
