Most formal council petitions are listed on the BCC website at this link with relatively short timeframes. However we also maintain a few longer-running petitions on this site that I resubmit to council periodically as the number of signatories grows.
Petition: New ferry terminal or other high-capacity public transport service for Montague Road
Brisbane City Council has again failed to include funding for a ferry terminal near Victoria St, West End in its annual budget, and has also neglected to include it in the draft of its 10-year Local Government Infrastructure Plan. The council's Local Government Infrastructure Plan has just gone out for public consultation, and will then need to be signed off by the State Government.
Petition: Trial 40km/h Speed Limits in Brisbane's Inner-South Side
Too many lives are lost in preventable road accidents. Too many people choose to drive because they don’t feel safe riding or walking. As the population of Brisbane’s inner-south side grows, we need to make our roads safer for all modes of transport, but particularly for pedestrians and cyclists.
Petition: For A New Masterplan of Riverside Drive
West End Riverside Lands Park (known to most people as ‘Riverside Drive’) is one of the heaviest used parks in the inner-city, both as a transport corridor and as a space for active recreation and leisurely walks.
Petition: Pedestrian Safety Improvements on Wellington Rd
Residents draw to council’s attention ongoing safety concerns for pedestrians crossing Wellington Road, East Brisbane in the vicinity of Mowbray Terrace, Baines St and Toohey St.
