Bikeways

Brisbane has an extensive and growing network of bikeways. Through the Better Bikeways 4 Brisbane program, Brisbane City Council invested $100 million between July 2016 and 2020 on bikeways to improve access to local destinations and the city centre.

Completed bikeway projects include:

  • Lores Bonney Riverwalk - Kingsford Smith Drive
  • Woolloongabba Bikeway
  • Kangaroo Point Bikeway
  • Botanic Gardens Riverwalk.

The next four years will see an increase in new active travel projects linking to the city's existing commuter network including the:

  • Indooroopilly Riverwalk
  • Green Bridges Program
  • CityLink Cycleway.

Before riding, check the temporary bikeway and shared pathway closures that may affect your journey.

Real-time bikeway counters

Council is installing real-time bikeway counters on busy cycle routes and shared pathways around the city. The devices will track the number of people riding bikes, and in some cases people walking, via infrared sensors and an inductive loop in the bikeway or footpath. The counts will be displayed on bikeways via electronic display boards and signs.

Brisbane will soon be part of a global community with these installations, with cities across the world having adopted a similar approach. View bike counts from around the world.

Council will initially focus on high volume bikeways in the inner city with popular suburban bikeways being considered at a later time.

Currently installed:

  • Bicentennial Bikeway, Milton (bike and pedestrian counter)
  • Go Between Bridge, southern side (bike counter)
  • Woolloongabba Bikeway, Stanley Street (bike and pedestrian counter).
  • Woolloongabba Bikeway, Annerley Road (bike counter)
  • Lores Bonney Riverwalk, Hamilton (bike and pedestrian counter)
  • the land bridge on the North Brisbane Bikeway, Spring Hill (bike and pedestrian counter)
  • Kangaroo Point Bikeway (bike and pedestrian counter)
  • Tank Street, CBD (bike counter)
  • Wynnum Road Bikeway, East Brisbane (bike counter)
  • Bridge Street, Wooloowin (bike counter).
