Brisbane Metro submission

The Property Council has provided the industry's input into Brisbane City Council's Brisbane Metro project consultation.

While supporting Brisbane City Council investment in public transport infrastructure, the Property Council expressed the need for a wider traffic management plan and the importance of maintaining vehicle access to buildings along the proposed route.

The Property Council warned BCC against any proposal to fund the project through special levies or upfront increases in rates on commercial property owners and stressed the importance of clear communication with land holders about resumptions and construction.
