Purpose
This 10.2 km rail line includes a 5.9 km twin tunnel under the Brisbane River and CBD. It is designed to unlock a major bottleneck in the South East Queensland rail network. By adding a second river crossing, it allows more trains to run more often, supporting the region’s massive population growth and preparation for the 2032 Olympics.
