A new accessibility review of Brisbane’s transport network highlights ongoing barriers faced by passengers with disabilities, mobility issues and parents travelling with prams. An on-the-ground accessibility test of Brisbane’s public transport system has revealed mixed results in the lead-up to the 2032 Olympics. Reporters assessed trains, buses, stations and pedestrian connections to determine whether the city’s transport network is genuinely easy for everyone to use. While some newer infrastructure performed well, issues including broken lifts, steep ramps, limited signage and inconsistent station accessibility created difficulties for wheelchair users, elderly passengers and families with prams. The findings have renewed pressure on transport authorities to improve inclusive access as Brisbane prepares for major population growth and international events.
