I used to work in this street, way back before the South Bank development, Expo 88 etc.
There was a plastics factory there called "Vinyl Clad P/L" which went right through to the next street. In the 1974 floods it went under about 15 - 20 ' of water, covering all our injection moulding machines and a warehouse full of new but undeliverd ice cream containers and juice bottles.
Bloody great mess.
The street became a nothing little dead end as they developed South Brisbane.
Oh. And Pye had its Qld warehouse next door. All those televisions and sound systems etc - gonski!

Nice little earner for the council. I hope they spend it wisely.
Maybe they could build some new carparks.

Why oh why do drivers park there?

[Dazzler]

That's a lot of $$$ for just one street

There's car parking stations all around the South Brisbane area. I can't say whether or not there's enough but I've never had trouble getting into one on the times I've been there.

I honestly think it's just people who are too stupid to recognise that any "No Parking" areas that close to the city are going to be heavily policed.

So many idiots and so few parking spaces.

And so much money, if you were the council, would you change anything.  all the way to the bank.
