In Slovenia, **Lab of Thought** teamed up with **RTV Slovenija** to flip the script on traffic updates.

Instead of focusing on cars, they shared updates for **walkers, cyclists, and public transport users** —like: _“Parents walking to school: an SUV is blocking the sidewalk again. Expect a dangerous detour. Proceed with caution.”_

**Why not bring this to Brisbane?**

On **September 22** (or another date), let’s partner with **4ZZZ** or another local station to create **traffic updates for people**. Imagine:

- Listeners texting in obstacles they face (blocked footpaths, unsafe crossings, potholes).

- Announcers breaking into commentary with live updates for walkers, cyclists, and bus riders.

- A fun, engaging way to highlight the need for **better transport infrastructure**.

**👉 Know an announcer at 4ZZZ or another Brisbane station?** Or are you passionate about making this happen? Let’s connect and make Brisbane’s streets work for everyone!
