Bus services resumed this morning; however, some areas of Brisbane are flooding.

Councillor Ryan Murphy told Bill McDonald, "In Brisbane, we're a bus city. Two thirds of all public transport trips are taken on a bus. Queensland Rail are still out of action today. So if it wasn't going to be our buses, it was going to be nothing."

"So yes, we came into service, but we were watching very closely the weather conditions and ultimately we made the decision that, look, there wasn't going to be many people out in that kind of torrential rain using the services anyway," Councillor Murphy continued.
