Roma Street Station Precinct

Extension of the CBD and Brisbane’s gateway to jobs, tourism and recreation

The significant improvement in transport connectivity and revitalisation of the Roma Street precinct made possible with Cross River Rail, will generate opportunities for urban renewal and enhancement of public spaces in the area.

It will also stimulate private sector development opportunities to create new commercial and residential hubs in one of the city’s most under-utilised areas.

Urban renewal at Brisbane's new 'Grand Central'

A new 'Grand Central'

The new underground Roma Street station will see Roma Street become Brisbane’s ‘Grand Central’, connecting passengers with the existing suburban bus and rail networks, the proposed Brisbane Metro, as well as regional and interstate bus and train services.

Stimulating growth and change

Demolition of the Brisbane Transit Centre to make way for the new underground Roma Street station will provide opportunities for enhanced public spaces and new commercial as well as residential developments, stimulating a much-needed transformation of the area.

Brisbane Live Entertainment Arena

Brisbane Live will be the city’s new home of entertainment right in the CBD. Brisbane Live, at Roma Street, a new world class arena is a great example of the new assets Brisbane could gain through the Cross River Rail precinct delivery strategy.
