South East Queenslanders are being reminded to plan their travel ahead from tomorrow until mid-January, with track closures in place to allow for crucial Cross River Rail works.
The track closures – taking place from 23 December 2023 until 18 January 2024 – will see all train lines on the SEQ rail network impacted at different stages.
During the closures, there will be plenty of alternative transport options available, including replacement rail buses, and customers are encouraged to allow extra travel time and plan their journey before travelling.
The track closures end on Thursday January 18 with services returning to a regular timetable from first service on Friday 19 January 2024.
The works during the closure period involve continuous intensive effort across multiple work sites to undertake substantial infrastructure works critical to Cross River Rail’s completion.
These include track reconfigurations, tunnel portal works, accessibility upgrades to the stations between Dutton Park and Salisbury and track as well as civil works between Bowen Hills and Albion.
The nature of the work means that track closures are unavoidable and closed tracks also mean that the works can take place safely and efficiently within the rail corridor.
