Tackling Queensland’s Rail Bottleneck<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The South East Queensland network is near capacity due to bottleneck created by a single river crossing and just four inner city stations. To address this Queensland Rail have developed a program of improvements called Cross River Rail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cross River Rail (CRR) is a new 10.2km rail line from Dutton Park to Bowen Hills, which includes 5.9km of twin tunnels under the Brisbane River and the CBD. The Cross River Rail project unlocks bottlenecks by delivering a second river crossing, allowing trains to run more often and integrate with new roads and bus services to enable a turn-up-and-go public transport system across the whole of Southeast Queensland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
