Help me with some info about driving around Brisbane.

I was struck in traffic in your BrisVegas joint yesterday, on Kingsford Smith Drive, where all the new highrise are being built. First thing I noticed was the absolute lowest cost architecture, then the precast construction, then the coating with cheap paint, ie some sort colour theme to make the joint look like a unassuming, till the paint fades. Then I thought all these dickheads stuck in their cars, on somebody’s timesheet, who is picking up the tab for that, and do any of those stuck in their cars have to pay off one of these units, and how is that going to work out over the next 20 or so years of the course of their loan. But the traffic was pretty rough and maybe there’s a quick solution to it to get around more easily? I mean it took a long time just to drive from Kingsford Smith

Seeking reliable independent grocer

I’m new to the northside of Brisbane and have been searching to no avail for an independent, reliable green grocer.

Park n Ride Options for Gabba Test Match

(and the same question in regards to the one in Eight Mile Plains) I live in Redland Bay, usually when I go into the city for university I park at the Hyperdome and take a bus. My research tells me that taking a bus from either Carindale (which I recently learned is only a 15 minute bus ride to Woolloongabba) or Eight Mile Plains (which is my usual option when I work at the Gabba) are the fastest options. TLDR: how screwed can I expect to be if I try to park at either the Carindale or Eight Mile Plains park n ride facilities after 10am on the weekdays? and which option of

Helicopter flying over inner city suburb with no lights

It’s after midnight. A helicopter has been circling low over my suburb (inner-city south side) for at least fifteen minutes now. I can hear it directly overhead but, no matter how long I look, I can’t see it, so it must be flying without lights. I thought all aircraft had to have lights at night. Does anyone know if there are legal exceptions? Police? Military? submitted by /u/BigRedTomato [link] [comments]
