About Brisbane
Brisbane
is the capital city of the state of Queensland,
Australia. The City of
Brisbane has approximately 957,010 inhabitants,
within a greater metropolitan area of 1.77 million
people, making it the third most populous metropolitan
area in Australia.
Brisbane has a subtropical climate with hot,
moist summers and mild, dry winters. Brisbane
is subject to high humidity, mainly from November
through to April. Summer thunderstorms are common,
and Brisbane frequently experiences hailstorms,
cyclonic winds and more recently severe drought
during the summer months.
Brisbane is situated in the southeast
corner of Queensland, an hour north of the Gold
Coast by road or rail, at a latitude and longitude
of 27°28' S 153°02' E. The city straddles
the Brisbane River, and its eastern suburbs line
the shores of Moreton Bay. The greater Brisbane
region lies on the coastal plain east of the Great
Dividing Range, although the urban area is dotted
by large hills reaching up to 300 metres such
as Mount Coot-tha, Mount Gravatt, Whites Hill
and Stephens Mountain.
Brisbane has a lower population density compared
with other Australian cities, such as Sydney
and Melbourne. Most
of Brisbane's housing stock consists of detached
houses on large blocks of land featuring sub-tropical
gardens. There are very few terrace houses in
Brisbane, and apartments dating before 1970 are
relatively uncommon. Pre-1950 housing stock is
often built in a distinctive architectural style
known as a Queenslander, featuring large verandahs
and built on stilts to maximise the circulation
of cool air during summer months.
Transportation
Brisbane has a comprehensive public transport
system, with high frequencies in the inner city
but poor service levels in many outer suburbs.
There are several electric suburban rail lines
operated by CityTrain, a division of Queensland
Rail. Buses within the City of Brisbane are operated
by Brisbane Transport, a business arm of Brisbane
City Council, as are ferries and CityCats (catamaran
ferries) on the Brisbane River. Buses outside
the City of Brisbane boundaries are operated by
private sector companies contracted by the State
Government. Two busways have opened in recent
years in Brisbane — the South-East Busway
and the Inner-Northern Busway, with two more busways
and new rail lines planned. Services and fares
are co-ordinated by Translink, a State Government
agency.
