What works are happening?
- Cross River Rail project works
- European Train Control System project works
- Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail project works
- Loganlea Station Relocation project works
- General track maintenance
These project works are essential to upgrade South East Queensland's rail network as it undergoes a once-in-a-generation transformation to support our growing population.
The scale and complexity of these works requires a longer closure period to keep workers safe and complete as much work as possible.
Track closures may be subject to change due to ongoing union protected industrial action. We'll keep you updated if there are changes.
