Just 1000 people have taken the Brisbane City Council up on their $100 Go Between Bridge vouchers since the scheme opened on January 1st.
The incentive aimed to draw people away from William Jolly Bridge, which has seen heavy congestion since Victoria Bridge closed to traffic as part of the council’s green initiative.
Local Infrastructure Committee chair Cr David McLachlan says the best way to reduce congestion will be by getting people on to public transport, which is still only at 70 per cent of pre-pandemic levels.
