Some information from our write up:
Safety and Security: Our vision is to have a safe, friendly and enjoyable olympics. Having a safe olympics is our top priority. To ensure this, we will have the Brisbane Police Service surrounding the event at all times and top security within the buildings to make sure there are no risks of danger. Luckily, Brisbane is a very safe place to live and to host events.
- Crime rate is low as well as: violence, physical attack, robbery and vandalism. There are some risks of natural disasters, as the city lies within the Tropical Cyclone Risk area, and can have severe thunderstorms that can cause floods and damage. All three of our stadiums have: - Switchboard above flood level. - Generator if it breaks down. - Fire panel above flood level. - Flood-resistant walls and fixtures. |
Transportation: We will team up with Translink Brisbane to go to and from stadiums throughout the event. We have investigated several transportation options but this seemed like the most efficient and eco-friendly way. Having buses taking people to and from stadiums will :
- Keep cars off the road. - More parking. - Efficient arrival. - Faster travel time. Will be closing roads to have specific routes to the stadiums and using all buses for these purposes. They will also be making stops at nearby hotels. |
Environment and Meteorology:
- Climate in Brisbane is usually warm or hot all year - Located in the southern hemisphere Brisbane has a humid subtropical climate with hot summers and warm winters. - Winter June-August the average temperatures are from 11-21°C. - Spring September-November the average temperatures of 15-25°C. - Summer December-February the average temperature is from 21°C- to above 30°C. - Brisbane is also a very eco-friendly city that cares about it’s environment. All transportation and venues are in the process of being eco-friendly. |
Vision, Concept and Legacy: Our vision is to host a safe, friendly and enjoyable olympics. Having a safe olympics is our top priority, without feeling safe it will be very hard to have enjoyable time. When you are visiting we are striving to be as friendly as possible to let people have a good time.
We are motivated by the endless amount of possibilities. In the long-term I feel our city will have: - Economic benefits. - More opportunities. - Better impression on other countries. With these long-term benefits I feel that the city of Brisbane will be more respected by the world and that it may make Brisbane a better place economically and socially. Economically and socially we would benefit by showing how interesting our city is and they would come back as tourists or more people would come to live here. |
