Happy QLD Day to everyone celebrating in the Sunshine State ❤ Tonight in Brisbane, the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges are glowing in iconic maroon to mark the occasion. It’s a fitting tribute for a structure with a story as spirited as Queensland itself. After 200,000 locals walked across the bridge on its public opening day in 1986, Prince Philip visited for the formal ceremony months later and cheekily declared it 'more open than usual.' That people-first spirit from day one continues to drive us. From connecting communities to helping ensure every journey is a safe one, we're thrilled to be part of the story.
