Its selection as an Olympic venue has prompted protests by community members concerned about losing green space and areas of cultural importance.<\/p>\n<p>The draft legacy plan includes two proposed pedestrian bridges across the inner-city bypass, which separates the site from Spring Hill and the rest of Brisbane\u2019s CBD. The road had been a significant constraint for planners.<\/p>\n<p>The plan also proposes flooding existing sports fields to expand the York\u2019s Hollow wetland. The government says about two-thirds of the current park will remain public green space and that the precinct will become a world-class destination for future generations.<\/p>\n<p>Save Victoria Park spokesperson Sue Bremner criticised the images as misleading and said they did not amount to a plan. She questioned how parking, roads, a train-station connection, crowd-holding plazas and a bypass ramp would be accommodated, while arguing the site was complex, expensive and poorly connected for sporting venues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arabic version: \u0628\u0631\u064a\u0632\u0628\u0646 \u062a\u0643\u0634\u0641 \u0635\u0648\u0631\u0627\u064b \u062a\u0635\u0648\u0631\u064a\u0629 \u0644\u0645\u0646\u0637\u0642\u0629 \u0641\u064a\u0643\u062a\u0648\u0631\u064a\u0627 \u0628\u0627\u0631\u0643 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0648\u0644\u0645\u0628\u064a\u0629 According to The Guardian, the Queensland government has&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":63304,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[99,9843,3229,212,7152],"class_list":["post-63303","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brisbane","tag-brisbane","tag-brisbane-2032","tag-olympics","tag-queensland","tag-victoria-park"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63303"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63303\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63304"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63303"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63303"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
