The Brisbane City Council would support trials of helmet-free zones with the support of the state government, following a review of Queensland's cycling laws.

In a submission to a parliamentary review of cycling issues, BCC CEO Colin Jensen writes the council would consider “relaxation” of the helmet requirement in “low risk locations”.

“This could include areas such as pathways in parks and along river and creek corridors where there is no interface with vehicular traffic,” Mr Jensen said.

“Council offers its support to assist the Queensland Government in reviewing these matters including the introduction of potential trial programs.”
