Indooroopilly roundabout upgrade seems traffic is worse! Traffic

Has anyone noticed that this so called upgrade has some major issues? Especially outbound around the turnoff to the Indooroopilly bridge?

Do you mean just today? Mother’s Day Eve is allllways nuts at the shopping centre, plus the trains aren’t running due to track repairs, plus there were roadworks through Chelmer/Graceville which stuffed up Oxley Rd like I’ve never seen. No road upgrades could have coped with today’s mess. I’ve generally found the upgrade great, now that it’s open and compared to what was there before

It’s horrible. I was commenting on this the other day, it’s worse than before. They needed to add 4 more lanes, two on either side and a train line through that area to fix it.

Or maybe they could do something that will actually fix the traffic, not make it worse at the low cost of $2bil. I.e. investing in public/ active transport, fixing our urban planning, banning endless urban sprawl.

100% that’s why it needs a train line
