## Resource

South-east Queensland’s explosive growth is leaving residents stranded—new suburbs like Flagstone, designed for 100,000+ people, lack reliable public transport. With bus stops often disconnected from actual routes, seniors and mobility-impaired residents like Maria and Margaret face isolation, costly taxis, and grueling commutes. While the government flags “priority development areas,” infrastructure lags, forcing families into two-car households and straining roads. Mayors warn new communities aren’t generating enough local jobs, pushing residents farther from work. Transport officials say improvements are coming, but residents demand coordinated action: as cities expand, so must their transit networks—or risk leaving people behind.
