Installation of signalling infrastructure – February 2026
A new digital signalling system is being progressively installed to key parts of the South East Queensland (SEQ) rail network, including in the Cross River Rail tunnels and the area south to Moorooka station.
Details of work:
- Between 6.00am on Saturday 14 February until 2.00am on Monday 16 February, excavation will be undertaken within the rail corridor along Tennyson Memorial Avenue (adjacent to the Brisbane Golf Club entrance).
- These works are essential to support the future installation of cabling under the railway line for the new digital signalling system known as the European Train Control System (ETCS).
Under track crossing works
- Excavation
- Compaction
- Use of lighting towers and generators
What to expect
- Increase in dust, vibration, noise and worksite lighting
- Personnel and work vehicles in the rail corridor
Every effort will be taken to minimise the duration of noise-generating works and disturbance to surrounding residents and businesses.
Thank you for your patience as we build a new digital signalling system. ETCS plays an important part in the future of our network, delivering increased safety, capacity, efficiency, and reliability for a sustainable transport network.
