There have been calls for the safety procedures and safeguards around the South Bank boardwalk to be reviewed after pedestrians had to dodge an intoxicated driver late Tuesday afternoon.

Security Expert, Neil Fergus said the boardwalk is key to major events in Brisbane, and a safety review should be seriously considered in light of the recent events.

A Brisbane City Council spokesperson was unable to comment on whether or not a safety review will be undertaken at the Southbank precinct.
