An urgent call for repairs to Brisbane’s footpaths has been rejected by a majority of the city’s councillors, despite the wait for some repairs being two years.

Opposition councillor Steve Griffiths (Moorooka) called on lord mayor Graham Quirk and the LNP councillors to support a motion for the list of footpaths awaiting repair and reconstruction to be publicly released and for the dangerous, damaged and unsafe paths to be reconstructed by December 31.

The call followed a 69-year-old resident falling on a footpath waiting repair on Durack Street in Morooka in September and breaking her wrist.

Independent councillor Nicole Johnston (Tennyson) said she also had residents in her ward fall on damaged footpaths and badly hurt themselves.
