Okay, didn't realise you were referring to an actual project. There is so little public transport outside of Brisbane and Logan, it just sucks.

It's really disingenuous how they run as independents. I can't find were on Mark Hammel's (Division 1) website it says he is a member of the LNP but his website is all yellow and blue, so I've got a pretty good idea where is allegiance is...

Haha yup. Fun times.

Amusingly, that's the BCC colours, so we're he in Brisbane that might not necessarily have indicated a party allegiance. But yeah, I do find it weird that Councillors outside of Brisbane hide their party allegiance. I'm not sure why but it seems so ubiquitous. Is it a rule or something?

Probably due to budgeting, I think they need to fund their own campaigns.
