Boorloo Bridge is finally open!
The long awaited pedestrian connection between the city of Perth and Victoria Park has finally opened. It is now safer than ever to cross the Causeway using the new Boorloo bridge, cyclists and walkers will now be separated and will connect Heirisson Island's kangaroos much closer by walk!
For a more longer, detailed video about the new Boorloo Bridge, I've made a full video covering almost every aspect of this bridge, click here for the video: ua-cam.com/video/ft14odhP_IM/v-deo.htmlsi=rh1DsmxxY-6nTdk7

    Did you know that Translink 777 bus already serves that SAME route to the airport for 50c ,,, and its timetable times are FASTER than the forecasted LR travel times. Go figure

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    And if they do build stage 4. This will be the longest LR route in the world ,,,, in opposite to the design philosophy that LR is best suited for short connector type routes between key destinations. Enjoy that 1 hour 50 minute ride from airport to Heavy Rail connection

  • @colinmay151

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    And finally, If Light Rail stage is build, Its costly construction with guarantee that fast heavy rail will NOT BE EXTENDED south of Varsity for at least 50 years. Rember HR was proposed in 2003 to be completed to the airport by 2015. Southern GC are being treated like second class citizens

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    At a time when smart cities are removing level crossings from main roads. The proposed LR stage 4 adds 8 vulnerable to road accident level crossings and will see the demolition of the gold coast highway access flyover replaced by yet MORE TRAFFIC lights TMR just love adding traffic lights

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    Connecting LR to the airport for ALL the $7000,000,000 estimated cost will NOT deliver any new market. Growth would require the once in a lifetime chance to connect faster heavy rail that would get passengers to and from the greater and faster growing GC/ Brisbane corroder. Heavy rail connects Helensvale in 29 minutes ,,, Unlike the proposed LR route that will take a mind numbing 1 hour 50 minutes. Its expensive rubbish

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    The mode and route location is based on an ideology believing LR is needed to justify Gov policy of increased building density. It is in fact a trojan horse to amend town planning to drive uplift ,,,, BUT why do they think it viable in the already highest socio economic real-estate zone where people are highly unlikely to stop using private vehicle transport.

  • @colinmay151
    @colinmay151 Місяць тому

    The Brisbane Metro is a far better concept ,,, better technology, flexible/ adaptable, scalable much more economical, quieter, no overhead wire and steel track and does not impede existing traffic. And if one car fails,,, the whole stem does not shut down

    Nicely done. Well researched with a good script. Liked the way the visuals were kept linked to the discussion, and their overall quality. As for G-Link. I'm yet to see any city in the world that has applied Light Rail as well as the Gold Coast. The city being long and thin along the coast helps, but it's been well thought out, looks so good you want to use it, and built in logical stages at an appropriate pace

    great video. I live on the gold coast and the tram definitely is great and I hugely support all of its extensions however it is a bit odd they are trying to send the tram to the airport instead of the heavy rail. just means travel time for a lot of people will be way higher. but any connection is better than no connection

    Great for letting people travel up and down the strip but bad for long distance travel. Light rail is just too slow for long distances. They should have reinstated the railway that ran from Brisbane to Tweed heads as a high speed Metro.

      @peterbreis5407 Місяць тому

      @@timallardyce1216 Maybe cut and cover like they did for the New York subway, so it is just under the street? The Wikipedia page: South Coast railway line - Queensland details where it ran. You can click on the OpenStreetMap link at the top right to see it mapped. It went mostly to the West of the Gold Coast with some overlap of the highways. I am not familiar enough with the geography to be more specific. The terminus of the Gold Coast railway at Bowen Hills and Varsity Lakes is way short of the Gold Coast. They could work on that end first. Transport should reach its named destination, not dump you in the middle of nowhere.

    @dancingrook8553 2 місяці тому

    This is awesome. I live regional QLD so public transit doesn't exist. I'm a great supporter for public transit for it's efficiency, sustainability and general coolness. I actually would like to see light rail installed in Hervey Bay which is growing rapidly also and I think it's existing "rail trail" is prime if it's possible to preserve the trail while adding light rail capability. It would also be an idea to retrofit the existing rail lines in Maryborough to work with light rail although I accept the viability of that is much lower being a significantly smaller town than Hervey Bay and Maryboroughs rail system may very well be heritage listed. (although I'm suggesting more of an upgrade than a demolishment) Never been to the Gold Coast past school trips to the theme parks which not sure if that even really counts as GC. I think I'm going to make a special trip soon specifically to try this light rail. Thanks for the video it was great!

      Well consider that Brisbane is building a 470m footbridge over their river at a cost of $299M. This is about $150M for 1000m. Construction materials have risen substantially in the past 5 years, this isn't a huge amount of money to build a sorely needed piece of infrastructure that will be used by thousands of people each day.
