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.
In July and August, work to build the future station building will continue with construction of the external and internal permanent walls. Within the services building, installation of precast concrete panels will continue as the structure approaches ground level.
As part of the Brisbane Transit Centre demolition, the original coach deck which formed the roof of Platform 2 at Roma Street station was removed. Between late November 2021 and mid-2022, the project will reinstate the platform and install a permanent new roof canopy.
The services building is an important structure for the project and will house the mechanical and electrical support systems for the entire Cross River Rail network. It provides all station services including power, water, heating and ventilation, and communications to the underground station via a 150m service tunnel or ‘adit’.
From mid-December 2020, the Roma Street station entrance will move about 15 metres east (toward the city).
