Council has deemed dangerous…a pedestrian bridge over Surfers Paradise Boulevard.. and plans to knock it down by Christmas.
The overpass, from the Q-T Hotel, was built by a private company in the eighties.. And helped visitors safely cross what was once Gold Coast Highway.
It was also used during the old Indy Carnival, when the circuit stretched into Surfers.
But it’s no longer up to scratch.
“Our engineering department found major flaws in the building and rust in the building, it would cost ratepayers a fortune to repair that bridge.”
Repairs would have cost 600-thousand dollars… Demolition will be 200-thousand.
