Don’t miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to travel 30 metres below the streets of Brisbane and see firsthand how things are progressing with construction of Brisbane’s new underground station at Roma Street!
Cross River Rail is a second rail path through the core of our rail network that will unlock a bottleneck and enable increased frequency of trains across the whole of South East Queensland.
Roma Street is one of four new underground stations being built as part of the project and once complete, the new station will integrate with existing suburban bus and rail networks as well as regional and interstate bus and train services, to make Roma St station Queensland’s largest and most significant transport interchange.
This is an incredibly rare opportunity to see the underground station during the construction stage, with a tour that also includes a trip under the station’s giant entrance canopy and a chance to see the elevators, platform screen doors, and architectural finishes already installed.
The limited tour will be led by some of Cross River Rail’s senior engineers tasked with delivering the station, as well as representatives of Hassell, the architecture firm that designed the station.
You will meet at the Cross River Rail Experience Centre and be provided with a full set of personal protective equipment (PPE), receive a safety briefing and view a short presentation on the project, before walking to site and descending 27 metres underground to view the station’s 220-metre-long platform.
