The Institute of Crap Traffic's mission statement is: "to highlight just how incredibly poor Brisbane's traffic is" to prove that Airtrain is the most reliable way to reach the Airport. We have collected a series of statistics, news articles, webcams, photos and videos to demonstrate that train is the best way to reach Brisbane Airport.

We'll keep updating the ICT so you can keep an eye on Brisbane's crap traffic.

We have also created the Missed Flight Lounge so you can vent your spleen online rather than abuse the backpacker standing beside the broken down kombi up the road.
