Brisbane

wait, australia also has 'lord mayors'?

how did that happen

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Brisbane ratepayers have spent almost $8,000 on billboards depicting Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner and LNP councillors spruiking their support for a state government tunnel project.

The billboards, which come less than four months before the next council election, feature images of Mr Schrinner, along with LNP councillors Tracy Davis, Adam Allan, and Danita Parry.

But the proposed tunnel they are referring to is a potential tollway being pursued by the state Labor government, which would run underground on Brisbane's northside, linking Kedron to Carseldine.

The council had previously undertaken its own extensive business case into a north-west transport network, which proposed similar tunnel options that would run between Kedron and Carseldine.

At the time, the state government did not participate in the council's study for the project, which Transport Minister Mark Bailey last year labelled a "feeble fantasy" and a "farce".

"If built, more than 100,000 vehicles a day would travel between Kedron and Carseldine via this tunnel by 2041, opening up the opportunity for a proper mass rapid transit solution along Gympie Road."

On one hand, it feels like taking credit for someone else's work.

But on the other, they aren't actually being disingenuous - they are saying that they support it and are giving a call to action in the form of directing to the project's actual survey website.

Ya'll have no idea how much roads cost and it shows.
