The proposed Indooroopilly bikeway has been transformed into the Indooroopilly Riverwalk, with two stages of the planned construction now to be completed at once to create an 800-metre shared path.
Brisbane City Council announced the four-stage bikeway, of which stage one alone was projected to cost about $8.5 million, would eventually connect the western suburbs of Kenmore and Indooroopilly to the University of Queensland.
Bicycle Queensland chief executive Anne Savage says the bikeway will make cycle travel faster and safer, with the plan aiming to remove cycle traffic from the roads.
