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.
The Roma Street station fit-out is progressing, with artwork installation complete and tiling underway on the new platforms. Work continues underground and within the main station building, with a focus on mechanical and electrical fit-out, as well as lift and escalator installation.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, work to install the façade and architectural panels on the Services Building at Roma Street is ongoing and anticipated to be completed mid-2025. Closures of the northern footpath and an eastbound lane on Roma Street to support this activity will continue intermittently. Access for vehicles travelling eastbound on Roma Street will be maintained during the work.
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.
From late May to late June 2025, scaffold works will be carried out on the new Roma Street station building. This work will take place during both day and night shifts.
