Hope Island station

Hope Island station is one of three new stations being delivered on the Gold Coast, to better connect South East Queensland’s growing population.

Acciona Georgiou Joint Venture (AGJV) has been awarded the contract to design and construct Hope Island station, with major construction now underway.

Current status

Final design of the station has been completed and major construction activities are underway.

AGJV is the head contractor delivering the Coomera Connector Stage 1 North package, located immediately adjacent to the Hope Island station. Integration and delivery of both projects under one contractor has been determined as the preferred delivery solution to reduce project interface risks including safety, construction and delivery timeframes.

The community will be kept updated as construction activities continue, and will be notified well in advance of train services commencing at Hope Island station.
