Development plan Brisbane roads, 1965

Development plan Brisbane roads, 1965. This ‘Recommended stage development plan’ for Brisbane appeared in the Wilbur Smith and Associates plan for Brisbane. The different colours denote pathways requiring development: red is stage 1 1965-70, blue is stage 2 for 1970-75, green is stage 3 for 1975-80, and brown is stage 4 for 1980-85. Major developments such as the riverside expressway are shown in this map. With its ‘Street and highway plan’ the transportation study recommended the removal of Brisbane’s trams.
