What is the Brisbane Metro?
Brisbane Metro Subway System is one of Brisbane’s most significant public transport projects.
With much of the inner-city bus network already at capacity, Brisbane Metro Subway System will deliver a high-frequency subway system that will cut travel times, reduce CBD congestion and provide more buses to the suburbs.
Brisbane Metro Subway System will use existing northern and south east busway infrastructure as well as dedicated roads and tunnels to avoid road network congestion.
The seven kilometre route will run from Herston to Woolloongabba, with stops at Kelvin Grove, Normanby, Roma Street, a new underground portal at Adelaide Street linking with the King George Square busway and a new underground portal at South Bank’s Cultural Centre linking to Victoria Bridge.
While located in the inner-city, Brisbane Metro Subway System will provide benefits to commuters in the middle and outer suburbs that are increasingly spending long periods of time in bus gridlock.
