Esplanade Road Closure
Actions you can take

For all Paradisians
A list of all the actions appear below this article.
1 – Surveys
The In Surfers Paradise survey
We have created our own survey asking approximately 30 questions. The intention is to create a secondary check on the data that is being presented by the Council. Notably our survey has questions that have never been asked directly. We hope to remove the ambiguity that seems to exist in the Council’s phrasing.
The Council’s public survey
Currently inoperative, the Council’s have your say "Surfers Paradise - Trial Pedestrianisation of The Esplanade" survey as of 20 October 2025 is broken and unable to submit answers.
