An even bigger rail project is the Suburban Rail Loop in Melbourne, GOING FOR A CRAZY 50 BILLION in construction which just commenced

[@snowstrobe]

When I was born there 60 years ago, this was a very basic city, we didn't even have sewerage. Sadly, it was always a car-centric city. Nice to see this finally changing, but should have been happening from the outset, then it wouldn't have cost so much.

[@hallmark38]

Thanks for covering this project, as a Brisbanite I love seeing my hometown on important channels like this one.

Hosting the olympics is never worth it.

[@thebackyardbrewer5611]

You should do a few episodes on Australia. Look at Sydney's new metro and inner city underground motorways and new international airport, theyre all incredible and Perth is building one of the most innovative suburban railways in Australia.

[@debartellomartinez7214]

The olympics have not been worth a damn since the 80's

[@Bradley-jn1xb]

Gee, wish my country would invest in infrastructure rather than war.

[@siahsargus2013]

Everyone tries to pull off their big infrastructure projects before the Olympics. Few succeed!

[@stephengentle2815]

Being from Brisbane, I really have to cringe that the stock footage of the Bowen Hills Spaghetti Junction features so many times in the video! Really need to dial the car-centricism right back and build far more projects like Cross Rover Rail (like an actual underground metro rail system - Cross River Rail is actually part of the suburban rail network, not a metro as stated in the video).

If only the Brisbane government would spend this much money on housing our rapidly growing homeless population

[@MassiveBuild]

You explained it well. In my opinion, these projects are much bigger than what we think💥

[@Freemanski]

So cool to see a BNE project featured on B1M! Watch this city for more great projects over the next decade. Yes, I have local bias!

[@ElusiveTy]

Very pleased and proud to see you featuring Australia again on your channel, please do more of our amazing development projects! There are so many going on across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. No doubt Perth may have some as well.

[@tomtho1]

Absolutely love when you showcase Brisbane on this channel. We've got so much going on and heaps of potential!!

[@LewisTL95]

I never thought I’d see a project that I’ve worked on feature in a B1M video - but it has.

[@michaelhope8899]

I'm constantly gobsmacked at the production value of your videos. I hope there is a team around you cause if this is you on your own, I'd be REALLY jealous. Amazing projects, too!

[@peterabbott1974]

Made me quite emotional watching this video. I lived in Australia from 1999 to 2003. I loved Brisbane more than any other city especially being connected to the Gold Coast but now there will be a underground rail to it. I’m very tempted to move back, but also in Sydney at the Olympics it made the city, one of the main world cities and I’m sure it will do the same for Brisbane

[@Rynlox]

I love watching all your videos. They're so well put together and I love all of the random things I learn. Keep up the great work.

[@Ceso123]

Love brissy, I’m British, first went to Australia Brisbane was my first destination back in 2009. Love seeing how much it’s been growing over the last decade and I’m now trying to move there from London (carpenter here)
