Six years out from Brisbane 2032, the countdown clock is running—but key venue costs, capacities and the Games’ operating budget remain unresolved. This Greater Brisbane update examines what is actually moving forward, before following the money through Airtrain’s accounts as calls grow for a government buyback and 50-cent airport fares. We also look at the first signs of a Brisbane property slowdown, the extraordinary decline of Karalee’s Bubble House and the historical discoveries made beneath Shorncliffe Station.

Brisbane’s transport challenges aren’t simply about roads, railways and buses. They’re also shaped by where people live, where jobs are created and whether a network traditionally focused on the inner city reflects the journeys people actually make.
In this episode of THE Brisbane Channel Podcast: In-Depth, Adam speaks with transport engineer David Hayward, director and co-founder of Aptura Consulting, Queensland Walks board member and Queensland Chair of Engineers Australia’s Transport Australia Society.
The conversation explores:
• Why Brisbane’s growth could lead to longer journeys
• What an ideal transport system might look like
• Why walking is often overlooked in transport planning
• The potential role of e-mobility
• Whether “tall over sprawl” works without adequate transport • What buses, trains, cars and active transport should each do
• Whether Brisbane 2032 could leave a meaningful walking legacy
• Why better land-use planning may matter more than another mega-project
The extended version of this conversation is available to Insider and Elite Contributor members of THE Brisbane Channel.
