Week 11 - Future Scenario Developing

It is 2025 and Brisbane's population has grown from 2million to 2.82 million people. This growth has forced the government to bring in many changes to the CBD. Brisbane has become a more sustainable city firstly by converting many streets into pedestrian only streets, allowing for more street space for infrastructure and stopping traffic congestion. Sophisticated bike paths have been implemented all over the city and leading out into the suburbs. Motorised electric bikes have become a popular mode of transportation and charging station which convert power harnessed to be released back into the cities electricity supply grid. Trams have been brought back into the city and more train lines have been put in place with transport running 24hrs a day.Because of these new changes the city has become run by pedestrians. The need for more recreational spaces in the city has risen due to the number of people roaming the streets. The city is so easily accessible at all times of the day there are more young adults walking the streets day and night.


- make scenario more based around the biking mode of transport

- ideas for building could be docking/bike storing station

- bike workshop

- vegan/healthy cafes

- small community gardens where the cafes/shops grow their food

- concert areas

- talk about infill projects

- not only infill buildings but recreation areas/parks

- sustainable healthy living hub

- bikes generate electricity for the building, food is grown and sold in cafe and shops

- could be a building completely run by young people (helping out disadvantage kids)

- urban power station

- george st site...instead of busway there is a new bicycle highway that comes directly into the building

- only access to the building is through this bikeway...makes it exclusive to bike users
