In development news, we answer the question many Teneriffe locals are asking about the massive excavation on Doggett Street. Plus, we celebrate a massive medical win with University of Queensland researchers developing a game-changing test for brain cancer, and look at the heartwarming surge in popularity for local social hiking groups like Redcliffe's The Man Walk.
