The new Cross River Rail underground station will see Roma Street become Brisbane’s most connected transport precinct.
A new underground station at Roma Street will link passengers with the existing suburban bus and rail networks, the Brisbane City Council Metro services, as well as regional and interstate bus and train services.
Progress continues on the Roma Street main station building, with two new canopy pieces installed in October and November. At the Services Building, scaffolding has now been removed to reveal the architectural concrete cladding. From January 2025, precinct traffic and pedestrian improvement activities will increase.
Throughout 2025, the Cross River Rail Tunnel & Stations contractor will continue construction of the permanent underground stormwater infrastructure including pipes, manholes and gully pits within the intersection of Roma Street and Makerston Street.
Major upgrades to Roma Street station subway are complete. Until late October 2024, minor finishing works and lighting upgrades on platform level will continue. Work is scheduled to occur between 6:30am and 6:30pm, Monday to Sunday, construction conditions permitting.
