Fix The Bruce
We’re standing with Queenslanders to demand fair funding to Fix The Bruce and save lives.
The Bruce Highway is the backbone of Queensland, but it’s broken.
You are 3 times more likely to be killed or seriously injured in a crash on the Bruce Highway than on the Pacific Highway, and 5 times more likely than on the Hume Highway.
The Federal Government funded at least 80% of upgrades to duplicate the Pacific and Hume Highways, but only want to pay 50% for future upgrades to the Bruce. It's not fair.
Demand fair funding to save lives.
It’s Queensland’s turn for fair funding to Fix The Bruce and save lives.
Unsafe and unfit for purpose...
More than HALF of all fatal crashes on the Bruce Highway are HEAD ON collisions.
On average, 29 people are killed in crashes on the Bruce Highway each year and 360 suffer serious injuries.
Almost half of the Bruce (45.2%) is rated just 2 out of 5 stars for road infrastructure safety according to 2019 AusRAP data.
National highways in other states received 80% Federal funding, but Queensland is being shortchanged.
Queensland demands fair funding to save lives.
