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.
Construction activity around the Roma Street station precinct has increased in recent weeks and will continue through to early 2026. Works underway include footpath remediation, road resurfacing and essential utility upgrades. Inside the new Roma Street station work continues to progress on the fit out and commissioning work of the station including glass installation work.
From mid-October 2025 for approximately six weeks, the George Street bus lane near Herschel Street will be temporarily closed to support additional construction activities. Following the closure, works will be undertaken during both day and night and will include modification to signalised intersections, footpaths, cycle infrastructure and landscaping.
From early September to November 2025, works will take place on the northern side of Roma Street near the Services building to construct footpaths, kerbs, utility and street scape upgrades. To support these activities, a continuous eastbound lane closure and pedestrian detour will be in place on Roma Street between Countess and Garrick streets. Access will be maintained to all on-street bus stops and Roma Street station.
From Monday 7 July 2025, access to Roma Street station will move 20 metres east (towards the city).
