Brisbane council rolls out fresh tools for residents tracking liveability and Games prep
Council site highlights new index and transport plans tied to the 2032 Olympics.
How we reported this

Brisbane City Council has added the Better Brisbane Index 2025 and a detailed transport legacy proposal to its public updates page, giving residents direct access to views on city liveability and long-term Games infrastructure.
The timing aligns with ongoing work toward the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Council materials now link everyday services such as parks and community facilities with the broader push to improve transport ahead of the event. Residents can use the page to check what is available nearby or sign up for regular newsletters that flag service changes.
Index and legacy plans sit alongside routine tools
The updates section lists several practical features. One lets people enter a location to find nearby parks, recreation spots and council services. Another covers council history marking 100 years of operation. Separate links point to community service announcements and options to subscribe to e-newsletters, including the Living in Brisbane newsletter.
The Better Brisbane Index 2025 appears as a study that captures how locals rate liveability and what they see as future priorities. Next to it sits the transport legacy proposal, which sets out how council intends to deliver lasting improvements for the community alongside Games-related work.
Residents can act on the information now
Anyone wanting the latest details can visit the council news and community updates page directly. The site encourages checking the index results for local concerns and reviewing the transport proposal for planned changes that will affect daily travel in coming years.
Subscribing to the newsletters or using the location tool provides ongoing access without needing to return to the main page each time.
