So here are some aliases for the ‘Metro’ that would be so much more fitting than the current name:
There are so may catchier names that the ‘Metro’ would be called.
Go the NAM!!!
“Metro” only denotes “Metropolitan”.
Australia alone has several definitions for Metro 
Rather than complaining about the name (definitions change over time) we should constructively offer advice as to how the system can improve. For example, my group is calling for Redlands Metro to be fast-tracked (i’ve sent a lot of emails out 
) and work together to expand this “Metro” idea into something more than two BRT routes 
Another example: once the bus layover in chermside is done, we should pressure BCC to deliver on their Fitzgibbon Metro Depot promise for the BCC 2024 election so the Metro can go to chermside. And while on that, turn the Northern Transitway into 24h instead of peak time only.
”Easy” wins.
btw RM1 and RM2 services are over. Queen Street, King George Square and Roma Street stations have returned to normal weekend service.
Im still waiting for when Jon Raven will announce Logan Metro
That could get rather confusing, as Logan Metro is a sporting complex in Crestmead.
It’s certainly a very flawed, yet aesthetic map looking back on it.
But I would be keen on council toying around with the idea of a Loganholme to RBWH (express) metroroute one day, as seen on the map 
Adelaide Street tunnel open day | Brisbane City Council
To celebrate the opening of Brisbane Metro’s Adelaide Street tunnel, Brisbane City Council is inviting the community to a tunnel open day on Wednesday 24 September from 10.30am to 2pm.
Be one of the first to walk through the newly constructed Adelaide Street tunnel while enjoying live music from local Brisbane talent Paradiso Strings. After exploring the tunnel, stroll to nearby Reddacliff place with the vibrant Wednesday markets offering an exceptional array of stalls.
This unique event will be an exclusive opportunity to experience the tunnel, before it opens for bus and metro services.
Registrations are essential, and numbers are limited per session. Register for one of the available 20-minute sessions between 10.30am and 2pm.
Oooh, I would love to, but by that time I’ll be in Hong Kong lmao
Sounds like opening of the tunnel won’t see an automatic increase of the Metro frequency to 3 minutes…
Once the tunnel opens, Metro frequency could be increased from the existing five minutes to four, then three, he said, adding that would be based on demand.
“So, as the number of passengers grows, and as we have more Metro vehicles arriving – the fleet order is still coming in – that will allow us to gear up,” Schrinner said.
“So, ultimately, the discussion between Translink, the state government and the Brisbane City Council will determine when we move to the higher frequencies.”
If I remember correctly we’re getting 60 units in total, right?
Because there’s a bit of an enigma since the rollout of the first buses about two of them that have been missing: 9001 and 9024.
METRO1 never went into revenue service while the latter has been plain nonexistent.
Maybe 9024 was damaged in transit?
The big rumour circulating is that 9024 got lost during its shipping.
“Lost at sea” in other words
9001 must be collecting dust inside some elusive corner in Eagle Farm depot as we speak 
I dissaprove Schrinner’s hesitancy on increasing Brisbane Metros’ peak frequency to 3 minutes (since its been heavily marketed as per the BNBN). Instead, he’s opting for incremental frequency improvements, which are subject to ‘demand’ and ‘state government approval.’ Like c’mon! Stop misleading your constituents. 
And let me guess: there won’t be any frequency improvements to weekend services. 
The weekend frequencies are great - every 10 minute headways - but it goes against the grain of the Brisbane metro’s branding: “turn up n’ go.”
10 minute headways during a Saturday is not “turn up n’ go.”
And I can’t believe that in the year 2025, that the 60 cityglider runs every 13-15 minutes during the weekend. It should be <10 minute headways.
If we follow true with Schrinner’s words - that frequency improvements will be reliant on ‘increased demand’, then we should expect M2 to have 3 min peak frequencies first, as there are no legitimate contenders with it.
Meanwhile, I see plenty of southsiders opting to wait an extra 1-2 minutes for a 130, 140, 150, because they can’t stand the M1 (whether it be how uncomfortable the bucket seats are, the seating layout, etc)
In short, I guess TAG axle buses and their plush bench seats will always reign supreme
I got two tickets for the 1pm session. Looks like it’s selling out fast, if people still want to go?
