Editing William Jolly Bridge (section)

===Congestion===
The bridge has two lanes for motor traffic in each direction, and a [[Sidewalk|footpath]] on each side of the bridge.

Although designed to reduce congestion on the existing Victoria Bridge and within the CBD, the bridge created new congestion issues of its own, as it put considerable pressure on the [[Normanby Fiveways]] intersection making it one of Brisbane's most congested and dangerous intersections.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article35914119 |title=BRISBANE DANGER SPOTS. |newspaper=[[The Courier-Mail]] |location=Brisbane |date=5 November 1935 |access-date=4 January 2015 |page=7 |publisher=National Library of Australia}}</ref>

By 2006, the [[Brisbane City Council]] reported that on a typical weekday, 42000 vehicles crossed the bridge and at peak times both ends of the bridge suffered from congestion. The [[Go Between Bridge]], opened in 2010, was intended to relieve some of the congestion on the William Jolly Bridge; however it has not achieved the level of use anticipated and operates under capacity, possibly because the Go Between Bridge is a toll bridge while the nearby William Jolly Bridge remains free to use.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/a-birthday-to-celebrate-go-between-bridge-turns-one-but-critics-remain-20110705-1h0l0.html|title=A birthday to celebrate?
