16 different bits of software and 39 companies? That's an insane task. Amazing that they can coordinate such complexity. It's an interesting looking project - my personal favourite part, weirdly, is the 5 storey UG car park. Expensive but great use of space.
Where are you from for you to find that a strange idea? Is it just common here in Australia? Because basically every building here has underground carparks, but i have noticed its much fewer in other parts of the world and basically non existent in Thailand where im living now.
Software Engineer here. The complexity of how they manage the project is almost as impressive as the building itself. Then again it’s nuts to think that without this software, a project of this scale and complexity just wouldn’t be possible. You can’t build structures like this without modern communications technology. Question for B1M. So is BIM/openBIM the backend for all of these programs? Does it integrate with the entire construction process from Supplier to Architect and Builder or just specific parts?
How is a car park a great use of space? cars don't buy things, work, or contribute to culture. They just provide transportation really inefficiently and expensively. There are other alternatives like trains, subways, busses, light rail, ride sharing, biking, walking, e-scooters etc that don't require crazy expensive 5 story underground garages. In my opinion, it would have been better to have built anything underground other than a car park, such as a performance space, movie theater, storage for the historical buildings they are restoring, restaurants etc...

@@Trananism Sydney is an awesome city to visit, but I have no idea how anyone can live there. Transport is a nightmare and it's eye wateringly expensive.
Omg I live a 10 minute walk away from here. It’s been awesome seeing it grow. I can only hope that the height limit in Brisbane is increased for future development. :)
B1M - not only the definitive video channel for construction but also the experts at advertising a third party product in a way the general public will still be interested 👏🏽
That looks sharp and I like the look of the Heritage bldg too. I think it'll be kind of interesting seeing that type of architecture alongside the newer development. Thanks for posting.
This development is my view while eating lunch everyday. It is an insane project and can't believe to imagine the level of complexity, needless to say I'm can't wait for it to be finished.
I’m pretty sure I remember watching this, or a video like this on the development a year or two ago, it’s really interesting to see how much goes into this building.
Another impressive and insight presentation. I live in Brisbane, I love your Channel and a fan of your work. Thank you and keep up with the good work mate. 👍
As a fellow Brisbanite this makes me proud to see Brisbane represented in this channel. This city is going through a renaissance. Fingers crossed we are successful in our bid for the 2032 Olympics 🤞
Well, good news, we did! (you prob know lol) I think that now we've got the 2032 Olympics, it all makes sense now. Queen's wharf, the International Cruise Terminal, expansion of our airport, Howard Smith Wharves, the government's been planning this. They're planning to capitalize on the Olympics, and make Brisbane known alongside Melbourne and Sydney. And then there's the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. They're putting things in the Gold Coast as well to make it known as well. I hope it works. I'll graduate uni in 2030 (if i do a 4 yr degree, idk i'm still 13) and if this happens, I may secure valuable property and a career which could BOTH increase heavily in value.
@@TheB1M You could also include the new direct rail link to Melbourne Airport, and the new railway ring line that has been proposed. The new Airport station looks really impressive.
@@davidbee3704 this guys gotta be living under a rock. It’s like in one of the most viewed places of Brisbane. It’s literally right there as u come off the motorway
@@chevy5755 Nah what I meant was that I knew that a massive revitalization project was happening on Queens Wharf but I didnt know what it would look like or what the future plans were. I just knew there was a bunch of cranes and a building is going up. I didnt know theres gonna be a new physical link across the river, or that the heritage buildings are getting a facelift or what the building in queens wharf will look like.
Yeah Melbourne has some fantastic stuff like the Docklands, Arden, Aus 108 and The Green Spine, But Brisbane, especially a city with less than 5 mil, has such a magnificent project ahead of them. This’ll make brizzy so much more attractive to migrants and investors, and it’s a wonderful piece of architecture and engineering.
It’s not just transforming Brisbane CBD, it’s also transforming South Bank with their upgrade of QPAC, the footbridge and more restaurants. This will also be a huge support for the 2032 Brisbane Olympics. They are also building Cross-River Rail, and underground train line, sort of similar to a subway at New York. It will be great transportation for the 2032 Olympics, and for the daily use of the public to reduce peak hour crowds at train stations and bus stations. There’s also Brisbane Metro being built, a clean and efficient tram or bus on the road
Having lived in Brisbane for 14 years now I am definitely excited for the completion of this project! Forget Sydney, forget Melbourne! Brisbane is Australia's city of the future and the city to bet on!
@David Williams are u ok😂😂😂😂. What wrong with your facts. Melbourne airport is the second busiest airport in Australia while Sydney is the first (search it up), also we have two international airports (Melbourne and avalon). Wdym there is no cities surrounding it😂😂, we have Geelong which is classified as a city. And wdym no architectural style🤣🤣. Melbourne has the most skyscrapers in Australia and the tallest buildings, look at our projects and designs. Brisbane doesnt even have a building that is at least 300m tall whuch is honestly sad. How can u say we are a copy of London, there are barely any buildings in london🤣🤣🤣🤣, pls research before u talk shit
@@jacobcornford4023 Melbourne is really nice:) But you also have absolutely no idea what you’re saying either. I don’t understand why we have to even compare 🤷🏽♂️. We should be grateful that we live in such an incredible country with amazing cities. Your comment on “no architectural style”, Melbourne isn’t really known for its original *house* style architecture. Where as the architectural style in Queensland of houses known as ‘Queenslanders’ is and is uniquely to that state. Having “skyscrapers and tall buildings” isn’t a flex 😂. That’s not a unique ‘architecture’ to have, and in fact, skyscrapers can be big eyesores and preserve no historic architecture to the city at all, but destroy it... Brisbane now has the largest airport capacity of any other airport in Australia - and actually has connected rail link services to and from the city. Melbourne still doesn’t have a train station to the airport 🤨, although I believe they’re finally looking into it. Also Brisbane is not able to have a building over “300m” because of height and flight path restrictions - and if this project was any clue on what Brisbane is capable of doing, they would’ve definitely built one by now, so that’s not “sad” 😂. And please Melbourne just welcomed its first 300m+ building last year. What is sad is that it’s taken that long for a city of that size and growth to finally reach that milestone when the Gold Coast built one almost 16 years ago at a fraction of the population - which still remains the tallest to this day. Regardless Melbourne is beautiful and I used to visit all the time pre-COVID.
@@chevy5755 How can you stay we didn't have a 300m + building until last year, We have the eureka skydeck which is 301m to the tip and that doesn't even have a pole on top of it😂. The q1 tower is like actually like 290m which is all floors then there is a pole stuck on top of it to take the the title, otherwise that building is not even areas 300m. The australia 108 and eureka skydeck are both 300+m tall with no pole on top of them. Both the Eureajs Skydeck and Q1 tower started construction in the same year. And did uk that the eureka skydeck has the highest observation deck in the southern hemisphere? You should know what u r talking before u talk aswell.
@@jacobcornford4023 Oh mate, I know exactly what I’m talking about. The Eureka Tower’s official height is 297.3m. That’s its official recorded height confirmed by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. That extra “tip” is a small lighting rod needed to combat lightning damage in bad weather - because the Eureka has a flat roof line , this is needed. And it isn’t uncommon either 😂. Many buildings have this as it is literally a requirement for safety reasons. It’s something that no one talks about though and it isn’t included in the buildings offical height as it’s just an antenna 😂. I don’t know why you’re trying to bring that up it’s exactly like movies and their box office - no one counts for inflation when finding box office numbers otherwise everything is useless. Buildings like the Q1 however are unique in that the lighting rod (spire) is actually built into the building’s structural component and is one of its main architectural noticeable pieces. This is however registered by The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat as this feature forms part of the building and was developed in the early stages of design and was not added in as an extra for safety measures 🤣. Still, I think it’s quite cool that they started construction in the same year, but who took the title? A record is a record. Did you know that the Q1 was the tallest residential building in the world upon completion, tallest building in the Southern hemisphere, and tallest in Australia (still is)? Having said all this, it’s not that serious, I was only trying to piss you off 😂. But I really want Melbourne to build a taller building than the Q1, well anyone really. I love the Q1 but it’s had its title for too long now, and the Gold Coast doesn’t get as near as much investment and development like Melbourne does, maybe in the future, but for now Melbourne is likely the only city in Australia to achieve such a thing. So I hope those new twin towers in South Bank are actually built!
I live in the Gold Coast area and they are starting to expand with more luxury residential towers and more pedestrian access too. The tramline will be extended to reach Coolangatta Airport in a few years. The airport needs an upgrade and expansion too.
Some great work there giving a glimpse into the CAD Work behind such projects. Would love to see more content like this. Looking forward to one of my next projects which will use Solibri.
I appreciate how you integrate ads into the video and I really enjoy looking at the 3D cad models ect.. However that seemed like the whole video. You hardly discussed queens wharf at all. No mentiom of the sky deck, 6 start hotel ect..
Futuristic, high tech, coordinated collaboration. Privileged to play our small part. Plus soooo cool to have our Infinite Openings tool for @Archicad included in a @B1M video, if only for 10 seconds (@ 4:09 mark)
Showing software working. Finally, Thank you. This is what we really want to see. We want to see how people work these project with 3d models and how they coordinate the development. This is what many of us want to see about architecture.
Great video, it will be even better when Cross River Rail is open with Albert Street station being very close to the Queens Wharf development (kinda surprised the future station didnt get a mention in the video)
Living in Brissie, that bridge has already been changed. Hopefully they do something about the roads into the city. With this project and more being developed in time for the Olympics, our roads will not handle the extra traffic.
Has there been any thought in managing the increase in traffic flow in and around this new area. Both the CBD and Southbank are congested heavily already.
Another awesome video! Australia is home to some awesome construction tech. They've got a couple really innovative companies like fastbrick robotics trying to automate the construction industry.
When I visited Japan, I was amazed that they built express roads on pylons/supports out over the water - thus no tunnelling or buying land. I thought no one would ever get away with it in Australia, as they would be confronted by court actions for "spoiling the views". Well done Brizzie!
I'm assuming you're referring to to Riverside Expressway seen in the video. It was built in the 1970's and was the first of what was to be part of a vast network of motorways across the city. However, after this and the pacific motorway were built (which takes you all the way to Sydney), there were protests at the destruction of neighbourhoods on the southside and most of the planned motorways were cancelled. Ironically, they have since built these motorways now, but as tolled tunnels.... There have been talks about demolishing the expressway and tunnelling it, but it would be prohibitively expensive. Currently underneath the expressway is desolate and unsafe and the Queens Wharf Project is revitalising the area underneath thankfully
Seeing something like this is soo incredible. Makes me so excited dor our future and what's to come.. 😍 Can't wait where the future is going to take our cities and lifestyle.😊
What about the cross river rail tunnel, clem7 etc.. My home city has some epic building works. Tho I give the crown to that underwater floating car tunnel to connect Norway, cutting travel time drastically.

Hahaha, we work with the facts we have!

I must admit I cringed a little when both of those lines were read out too 😂
Awesome vid! You should do one on Cross River Rail, the massive rail project that ties in with Queens Wharf in terms of Brisbane’s development
Your wish came true - th-cam.com/video/tn3mOQIUuCk/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TheB1M
I am always amazed by the level of development that Brisbane has, even though I have been studying in here for 3 years.
That promenade deck will be the best place to view Riverfire Brisbane and look down on the RAAF aircraft flying down the river for it.
Brisbane truly is Australia's new world city, with this and Cross River Rail
😂
NWO... Lol
Love your Aussie projects videos 😊👍
This youtube channel is a goldmine of content!
It looks awesome! I love how Australia is a newer country but is super advanced and modern.
As a fellow Australian, I just wish all the best for this project
What a beautiful city. Much like these videos. Would love to visit Australia some day. Edit - that software looks epic.
Would love to have you
@@anon8774 thanks anon
Brisbane sucks, it's getting better. But it sucks. Head south.
@@mathuinscott3408 don't listen to this negative tool
@@Leefryyinc Yeah, you're right. Brisbane is a world class city.
Unless you want dining past 8pm, shopping past 6pm, a nightlife, decent public transport, preserved heritage of the city, beautiful public spaces (aside from say... Roma street parklands) or just generally everything else that a capital city should have. BUT, i mean... fuck, you made such a great point. By no metric whatsoever is Brisbane there yet. Awww shit yeah...another casino though.
Thumbs up, you're a fucking champ.
Glad to call Australia home :) and one day I'll call Brisbane home, untill then im happy in Melbourne
I made the move up to Brisbane from Sydney a few years ago and I am loving it. Its actually affordable to have a place that is not that far from the city.
@@Trananism Sydney is an awesome city to visit, but I have no idea how anyone can live there. Transport is a nightmare and it's eye wateringly expensive.
Omg I live a 10 minute walk away from here. It’s been awesome seeing it grow. I can only hope that the height limit in Brisbane is increased for future development. :)
Couldn’t agree more, the 274metre height limit sucks, Brisbane could really use a nice 340m+ building
@@white94rabbit it would be nice to rival the Gold Coast and Melbourne as Australia’s skyscraper city.
Wait they have a height limit? Whats the reason?
@@aussiesorcerer791 I think its to do with the airport isn't it. I've never understood though because the flight path is further east
@@aussiesorcerer791 approach radar at Brisbane airport. Buildings over 274m will create a blank spot right in the main southern approach.
Danke!
It’s also in the perfect spot right near south bank.
Truly love that place
Lucky your not behind it then.
Southbank is better than most of Brisbane tbh.
So cool to see a video from Brisbane!!!! Can’t wait to see how it develops and I’m hoping to get on the site this year!
Ever since I discovered this channel before they passed 100k, I always wanted them to cover this!
I drive past this everyday. Can’t wait for it to be done. Will be amazing for our city.
And here in the UK the council struggle to maintain the pot holes in the road.
Hey it's ok, UK tax money goes towards the money and housing of immigrants 👍🏻 it's all good
you struggle to maintain the pot holes? Wouldn't it be more sensible to consider attempting to reduce their number instead? ;)
@@Deni-nl1ce Oh that old escape goat.
its the best part of my day when there is a new B1M episode. Thank you
I drove past the site just a couple of hours ago, it'll be interesting to see it completed
I’m so happy you made a vid about this, so good to see Brisbane on the channel, thank you
Developers: What shapes would you like Queens wharf to be?
BRISBANE: YES
downundabrotha followed by;
Developers: what's your budget?
QLD govt: yes.
B1M - not only the definitive video channel for construction but also the experts at advertising a third party product in a way the general public will still be interested 👏🏽
Nah. The first one was interesting. Now it sounds like the same ad every time.
I’m from Brisbane and it’s so cool that the B1M made a video on this
That looks sharp and I like the look of the Heritage bldg too. I think it'll be kind of interesting seeing that type of architecture alongside the newer development. Thanks for posting.
oh wow this looks fantastic
This development is my view while eating lunch everyday. It is an insane project and can't believe to imagine the level of complexity, needless to say I'm can't wait for it to be finished.
I’m pretty sure I remember watching this, or a video like this on the development a year or two ago, it’s really interesting to see how much goes into this building.
Meanwhile Melbournians be vibing
Lol
What’s the best thing ever to come out of Brisbane?...... The highway.
Melbournians relishing in the new West Gate Bridge project lmao
@@morerightrudder9742 What's with this attitude. We are Australians, be proud. We have great cities. Yeesh.
@@mickanvonfootscraymarket5520 what attitude? It was a joke my dude.
Another impressive and insight presentation. I live in Brisbane, I love your Channel and a fan of your work. Thank you and keep up with the good work mate. 👍
As a fellow Brisbanite this makes me proud to see Brisbane represented in this channel. This city is going through a renaissance. Fingers crossed we are successful in our bid for the 2032 Olympics 🤞
🤞 let’s hope so!
Well, good news, we did! (you prob know lol) I think that now we've got the 2032 Olympics, it all makes sense now. Queen's wharf, the International Cruise Terminal, expansion of our airport, Howard Smith Wharves, the government's been planning this. They're planning to capitalize on the Olympics, and make Brisbane known alongside Melbourne and Sydney. And then there's the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. They're putting things in the Gold Coast as well to make it known as well. I hope it works. I'll graduate uni in 2030 (if i do a 4 yr degree, idk i'm still 13) and if this happens, I may secure valuable property and a career which could BOTH increase heavily in value.
I’ve been loving watching the progress of my city. Brisbane 2025 is going to change this place so much, and Queens Warf is going to be a game changer.
Wait till the Olympics are confirmed in 2032 is going to be lit

Hey B1M, You should create a video on the big upgrade of the metro tunnel system in Melbourne if possible :).
Great idea, we're on it! 👏
@@TheB1M You could also include the new direct rail link to Melbourne Airport, and the new railway ring line that has been proposed. The new Airport station looks really impressive.
@@TheB1M It whoud be better to see Toronto
@@TheB1M Maybe also Cross River Rail Brisbane, Metronet Perth, and Sydney Metro. Just some ideas 😀
@@sataward593 exactly
Looks incredible. Can't wait to see it finished. Love my city!
Brisbane Represent!
🙌
What a remarkable project and a wonderful presentation by the B1M!
Excellent Video, I didn’t know this was happening in my own city.
Mate, really? Let me guess... you haven't heard of the Cross River Rail project either?
@@davidbee3704 this guys gotta be living under a rock. It’s like in one of the most viewed places of Brisbane. It’s literally right there as u come off the motorway
How does someone not notice literally 9 cranes sticking out of the ground, NINE.
You guys are fucking hilarious
@@chevy5755 Nah what I meant was that I knew that a massive revitalization project was happening on Queens Wharf but I didnt know what it would look like or what the future plans were. I just knew there was a bunch of cranes and a building is going up. I didnt know theres gonna be a new physical link across the river, or that the heritage buildings are getting a facelift or what the building in queens wharf will look like.
I love how high quality this video is. Never a Boring moment
Yeah Melbourne has some fantastic stuff like the Docklands, Arden, Aus 108 and The Green Spine, But Brisbane, especially a city with less than 5 mil, has such a magnificent project ahead of them. This’ll make brizzy so much more attractive to migrants and investors, and it’s a wonderful piece of architecture and engineering.
It’s not just transforming Brisbane CBD, it’s also transforming South Bank with their upgrade of QPAC, the footbridge and more restaurants. This will also be a huge support for the 2032 Brisbane Olympics. They are also building Cross-River Rail, and underground train line, sort of similar to a subway at New York. It will be great transportation for the 2032 Olympics, and for the daily use of the public to reduce peak hour crowds at train stations and bus stations. There’s also Brisbane Metro being built, a clean and efficient tram or bus on the road
Having lived in Brisbane for 14 years now I am definitely excited for the completion of this project! Forget Sydney, forget Melbourne! Brisbane is Australia's city of the future and the city to bet on!
Hahahaha, Brisbane is way behind Melbourne😂. This is just 1 thing.
@David Williams are u ok😂😂😂😂. What wrong with your facts. Melbourne airport is the second busiest airport in Australia while Sydney is the first (search it up), also we have two international airports (Melbourne and avalon). Wdym there is no cities surrounding it😂😂, we have Geelong which is classified as a city. And wdym no architectural style🤣🤣. Melbourne has the most skyscrapers in Australia and the tallest buildings, look at our projects and designs. Brisbane doesnt even have a building that is at least 300m tall whuch is honestly sad. How can u say we are a copy of London, there are barely any buildings in london🤣🤣🤣🤣, pls research before u talk shit
@@jacobcornford4023 Melbourne is really nice:) But you also have absolutely no idea what you’re saying either. I don’t understand why we have to even compare 🤷🏽♂️. We should be grateful that we live in such an incredible country with amazing cities.
Your comment on “no architectural style”, Melbourne isn’t really known for its original *house* style architecture. Where as the architectural style in Queensland of houses known as ‘Queenslanders’ is and is uniquely to that state. Having “skyscrapers and tall buildings” isn’t a flex 😂. That’s not a unique ‘architecture’ to have, and in fact, skyscrapers can be big eyesores and preserve no historic architecture to the city at all, but destroy it...
Brisbane now has the largest airport capacity of any other airport in Australia - and actually has connected rail link services to and from the city. Melbourne still doesn’t have a train station to the airport 🤨, although I believe they’re finally looking into it.
Also Brisbane is not able to have a building over “300m” because of height and flight path restrictions - and if this project was any clue on what Brisbane is capable of doing, they would’ve definitely built one by now, so that’s not “sad” 😂. And please Melbourne just welcomed its first 300m+ building last year. What is sad is that it’s taken that long for a city of that size and growth to finally reach that milestone when the Gold Coast built one almost 16 years ago at a fraction of the population - which still remains the tallest to this day. Regardless Melbourne is beautiful and I used to visit all the time pre-COVID.
@@chevy5755 How can you stay we didn't have a 300m + building until last year, We have the eureka skydeck which is 301m to the tip and that doesn't even have a pole on top of it😂. The q1 tower is like actually like 290m which is all floors then there is a pole stuck on top of it to take the the title, otherwise that building is not even areas 300m. The australia 108 and eureka skydeck are both 300+m tall with no pole on top of them. Both the Eureajs Skydeck and Q1 tower started construction in the same year. And did uk that the eureka skydeck has the highest observation deck in the southern hemisphere? You should know what u r talking before u talk aswell.
@@jacobcornford4023 Oh mate, I know exactly what I’m talking about. The Eureka Tower’s official height is 297.3m. That’s its official recorded height confirmed by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. That extra “tip” is a small lighting rod needed to combat lightning damage in bad weather - because the Eureka has a flat roof line , this is needed. And it isn’t uncommon either 😂. Many buildings have this as it is literally a requirement for safety reasons. It’s something that no one talks about though and it isn’t included in the buildings offical height as it’s just an antenna 😂. I don’t know why you’re trying to bring that up it’s exactly like movies and their box office - no one counts for inflation when finding box office numbers otherwise everything is useless.
Buildings like the Q1 however are unique in that the lighting rod (spire) is actually built into the building’s structural component and is one of its main architectural noticeable pieces. This is however registered by The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat as this feature forms part of the building and was developed in the early stages of design and was not added in as an extra for safety measures 🤣. Still, I think it’s quite cool that they started construction in the same year, but who took the title? A record is a record. Did you know that the Q1 was the tallest residential building in the world upon completion, tallest building in the Southern hemisphere, and tallest in Australia (still is)? Having said all this, it’s not that serious, I was only trying to piss you off 😂. But I really want Melbourne to build a taller building than the Q1, well anyone really. I love the Q1 but it’s had its title for too long now, and the Gold Coast doesn’t get as near as much investment and development like Melbourne does, maybe in the future, but for now Melbourne is likely the only city in Australia to achieve such a thing. So I hope those new twin towers in South Bank are actually built!
I live in the Gold Coast area and they are starting to expand with more luxury residential towers and more pedestrian access too. The tramline will be extended to reach Coolangatta Airport in a few years. The airport needs an upgrade and expansion too.
What a fantastic project for the city. When complete it will be a real draw card for Brisbane.
Some great work there giving a glimpse into the CAD Work behind such projects. Would love to see more content like this. Looking forward to one of my next projects which will use Solibri.
I appreciate how you integrate ads into the video and I really enjoy looking at the 3D cad models ect.. However that seemed like the whole video. You hardly discussed queens wharf at all. No mentiom of the sky deck, 6 start hotel ect..
My favourite channel on TH-cam 😘
Hello form Brisbane!
Futuristic, high tech, coordinated collaboration. Privileged to play our small part.
Plus soooo cool to have our Infinite Openings tool for @Archicad included in a @B1M video, if only for 10 seconds (@ 4:09 mark)
This is a badass project🔥 that can skyrocket the economy of Queensland💥
👍 Chinese speculators liked this
Showing software working. Finally, Thank you. This is what we really want to see. We want to see how people work these project with 3d models and how they coordinate the development. This is what many of us want to see about architecture.
Hi B1M. Nice video.
Any chance of a video on another Brisbane project: the Cross River Rail?
Definitely, we're aware of that scheme and will take a look 👍
@@TheB1M perhaps include rail projects across Australia including Sydney Metro?
@@TheB1M Thanks.
Love your work.
@@TheB1M Maybe you could include Cross River Rail, Melbourne Metro and an update of Sydney Metro progress.
Great video, it will be even better when Cross River Rail is open with Albert Street station being very close to the Queens Wharf development (kinda surprised the future station didnt get a mention in the video)
Living in Brissie, that bridge has already been changed. Hopefully they do something about the roads into the city. With this project and more being developed in time for the Olympics, our roads will not handle the extra traffic.
Can't wait to see this complete in my hometown... Looking forward to take my family for a visit on weekends...
Has there been any thought in managing the increase in traffic flow in and around this new area. Both the CBD and Southbank are congested heavily already.
there are new underground train stations going in, one of the stations is a 1 minute walk from the QW
Another awesome video! Australia is home to some awesome construction tech. They've got a couple really innovative companies like fastbrick robotics trying to automate the construction industry.
Should do a video on Brisbane's cross river rail 😁😁😁
When I visited Japan, I was amazed that they built express roads on pylons/supports out over the water - thus no tunnelling or buying land. I thought no one would ever get away with it in Australia, as they would be confronted by court actions for "spoiling the views". Well done Brizzie!
I'm assuming you're referring to to Riverside Expressway seen in the video. It was built in the 1970's and was the first of what was to be part of a vast network of motorways across the city. However, after this and the pacific motorway were built (which takes you all the way to Sydney), there were protests at the destruction of neighbourhoods on the southside and most of the planned motorways were cancelled. Ironically, they have since built these motorways now, but as tolled tunnels.... There have been talks about demolishing the expressway and tunnelling it, but it would be prohibitively expensive. Currently underneath the expressway is desolate and unsafe and the Queens Wharf Project is revitalising the area underneath thankfully
Seeing something like this is soo incredible. Makes me so excited dor our future and what's to come.. 😍 Can't wait where the future is going to take our cities and lifestyle.😊
Good afternoon Fred & Co! Keep up the great content! 😎👍🏻
What about the cross river rail tunnel, clem7 etc.. My home city has some epic building works.
Tho I give the crown to that underwater floating car tunnel to connect Norway, cutting travel time drastically.
While working at 1WS was fascinating to watch this project progress
