Transport in South Bank Precinct
BSB recently held an information session on transport, which consistently ranks as one of the most important issues in the precinct in the BSB Annual Survey.
Members heard from Ben Wilson, CEO, Bicycle Queensland (BQ) on BQ's proposed Stanley Street Bikeway Concept and George Chemali, Manager of Business Development at Translink, who shared information on new Translink products that may be of great use to your business.
The go Corporate Events Card is an affordable and convenient way to add value to your events. Your delegates would have unlimited travel on all Translink bus, train*, ferry and tram in South East Queensland.
The go business card can be re-used by multiple persons from the same organisation.
