Current bikeway and pathway projects

Through the Better Bikeways 4 Brisbane program, Brisbane City Council is investing $100 million over the next four years from July 2016. Brisbane’s network of bikeways improves access to local destinations and the Brisbane Central Business District (CBD). Cycle paths and bikeways enhance Brisbane's environment, keep our community active and healthy and minimise traffic congestion.
