Work is underway on Brisbane’s new underground!

Cross River Rail will transform how we travel to, from and through Brisbane in the future.

And while that means the whole of South East Queensland can start looking forward to the benefits of Cross River Rail, right now it means changes to roads, footpaths and public transport services.

To find out what is currently happening now, follow the links below.
