A further $545,000 will be spent on fixing the slippery surface on Goodwill Bridge, which cyclists have been sliding on for almost a year.
Although more than $23,000 has already been spent on this problem in 2017, the bridge still remains a hazard. The Department of Public Works received 33 complaints from October 4, 2017 to August 23, 2018. 14 of these included claims for compensation.
The new surface should be installed in six weeks time. Bicycle Queensland chief executive Anne Savage says it will be safe, water-resistant and non-slip.
