This is particularly bad because Queens Wharf Rd has been closed for the construction of the mega-casino since 2017, making it very difficult to get into the CBD by bike from the Bicentennial Bikeway, the most heavily-trafficked bikeway in the city.
And since 2022, the nearest bikeway ramp was also closed due to Metro construction. So this lift has, for the last 2 years, been the only way to get into the CBD by bike anywhere close to Victoria Bridge & Queen St. And it’s insanely unreliable.
And of course the LNP Councillors would rather spend effort blaming vandals than actually addressing the underlying problem: that the lift itself is essential due to a lack of other options.

Doesn’t affect cars, so your chances of it being prioritised are low.
