ARI's Dr Margaret Cook @mcookhistory had a great opinion piece in The Age & syndicated newspapers on Australia Day, about the 74 floods and the myth of Wivenhoe Dam which continues to linger @AANZEHN @HazardsResearch
@latrobe Read on here: https://t.co/AxLzPckBzj

At the opening of the dam in 1985, Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen declared he doubted if a flood on the scale of 1974 could occur again. Newspapers propagated the myth.

It's been 50 years since the 1974 Brisbane River flood. Listen to ARI's Dr Margaret Cook discuss how floodwaters rose on 26 January 1974 to impact tens of thousands of homes after Cyclone Wanda crossed the coast https://t.co/8OfF14ZXlh

School closures, field mice, and the cut-off Jindalee Bridge are some of the memories of Brisbane's 1974 floods.
