Remember to buy a poppy!

Remembrance Day, Thursday 11 November 2010 marks the anniversary of the armistice which ended the First World War (1914 - 18). Each year Australians observe one minute silence at 11 am on 11 November, in memory of those who died or suffered in all wars and armed conflicts.

Also remember from earlier posts on this blog that Anzac Park, Toowong, is in fact listed on the Brisbane City Council’s very own City Plan Heritage Register.

It was listed for a few reasons one important one being, as a place for remembering the fallen from the district in the Great War, it has a strong or special association with the life or work of a particular community or cultural group for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.

Now read on....

On the Northern Link website under EIS Volume 3 - Technical papers

The Cultural Heritage Report for the Proposed Northern Link Project completed by The University of Queensland Archaeological Services Unit Report No. 423b states at 10.2.3:

10.2.3 Construction Access
Any vehicles involved in construction activities must not use Anzac Park as a means of access to the project area nor can it be used for the storage of construction materials.

Take the direct link to this document and have a read. It’s almost at the bottom of this 408 page document.

Does the BCC think the locals of Toowong came down in the last shower, which was in fact today?

There can be no car park in Anzac Park so what is the alternative?
