The owner of the modest house on a large block wants to sell the property to help pay for his 101-year-old mother to move into aged care.

A Brisbane woman whose fight to avoid eviction became an election issue, backed by Greens mayoral candidate Jonathan Srirangathan, had no right to stay, a tribunal has ruled.

Cridland argued she would be under extreme hardship if forced out of her home, and had been suffering as a result of the decision to end her lease. “This seems to be supported by Ms Cridland’s own statement of November 30, 2023, in which she states, ‘I am faced with rent prices nearly double what I have been accustomed to paying’,” the owner told the tribunal.In a decision handed down on February 12, QCAT member Michelle Lember found Cridland had been issued with a notice to leave when her fixed-term lease ended in October last year.

LNP's Brisbane Metro Plan to Improve Bus CommutesMore than 54 per cent of bus commuters will have faster journeys under a radical shake-up of Brisbane’s buses – already approved by Translink – if the LNP wins City Hall on March 16. A further 33 per cent of commuters will be of the same duration on more efficient routes, while 13 per cent of bus commuters will have slightly slower bus trips, but have more suburban buses. The LNP’s plan introduces “two-seat” bus trips to Brisbane, where commuters take a suburban bus to a Brisbane Metro hub, and then travel by Metro through the CBD. Under the LNP’s $1.4 billion Brisbane Metro plan, the 60 three-car mega buses will collect passengers from suburban hubs - such as this one at University of Queensland -and carry them through the CBD on a five-minute frequency.At the 19 Brisbane Metro hubs, the suburban buses return to extra suburban bus services, while the passengers hop on to Metro rapid transit buses to travel every five minutes to the CBD
