Yes. The lagoon at South Bank was definitely under water. When the floodwaters receded, they left behind masses of mud and silt which are expected to take months to clean up.

What is the name of the dam linked to the Queensland floods earlier in the year?
The dam at the centre of the controversy surrounding the Brisbane floods (but not the Queensland floods) is Wivenhoe Dam.Wivenhoe is the main dam that protects the city of Brisbane from flooding, but excessive rainfalls in the catchment, and a wall of water which came down the Toowoomba Range, sent its capacity to 190% in January 2011. The gates had to be opened, sending the equivalent of two Sydney Harbour's worth of water into the Brisbane River each day. This is why Brisbane and Ipswich flooded.

In reference to the 2011 floods: There will be some back roads open, but generally this is an area one should avoid, as there is considerable flooding along the way.
