About the project
Brisbane City Council and the Queensland Government have been jointly delivering the North Brisbane Bikeway, which connects the CBD with Brisbane’s northern suburbs.
The connection between the North Brisbane Bikeway on Dickson Street and the Kedron Brook Bikeway is a missing link in Brisbane’s north. Completing this final stage of the North Brisbane Bikeway will create a bikeway for residents, visitors and commuters to enjoy.
The North Brisbane Bikeway: Price Street to Kedron Brook project will extend the North Brisbane Bikeway route to create a high-quality, active travel facility that improves safety, accessibility and connectivity for riders and pedestrians.
Current community consultation
We are planning for community engagement this year for the North Brisbane Bikeway: Price Street to Kedron Brook project.
Expressions of Interest (EOIs) for the community working group have now closed.
Thank you to all who have submitted an EOI to participate in the community working group. We received over 80 submissions from residents, business owners, commuters, visitors, and local organisations during the four-week period.
Participants will be selected to reflect a cross section of the local community. Successful participants will be notified by no later than 22 March 2024 and will receive more details about next steps.

Previous community consultation
Council released a concept design for the project in late October 2021 for a four-week community consultation period, which closed in late November 2021.
The consultation sought feedback on various treatments to provide a high-quality active transport facility and complete the final link between the Queensland Government’s North Brisbane Bikeway (NBB) on Dickson Street and the Kedron Brook Bikeway at Jackson Street, via Junction Road.
This included:
- a dedicated, separated bikeway on Dickson Street and Bonney Avenue, connecting the North Brisbane Bikeway stage 4 at Price Street via Junction Road
- a green street on Keith, Sydney and Jackson streets, between Junction Road and the Kedron Brook Bikeway, to create a shared, low speed on road active travel route.
The project team received more than 1000 responses from local residents, businesses, commuters and community members during the consultation period.
Following the floods in February 2022, Council redirected funding and resources to prioritise the rebuilding of roads, bridges, bikeways, parks and sports facilities across Brisbane to ensure our flood recovery efforts were timely. This meant the project did not progress after the late 2021 consultation period.
Next steps
Council will be undertaking 2 community working group meetings over the coming months. We will provide an update to the broader community following the conclusion of the community working group.
Next steps for this project, including any future construction, will be dependent on future funding allocations.
