2024/25 Council Budget: Chandler Overview

Go East! Taking the Brisbane Metro from Coorparoo to Capalaba

Council has announced that it has partnered with the Redlands City Council and the State Government to fund the Eastern Metro Study which will investigate providing a Brisbane Metro route from Coorparoo to Capalaba.
