en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Queensland Government has released the upgraded design for the Beenleigh station precinct. This upgrade is part of the Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail project, which will deliver dual tracks between Kuraby and Beenleigh, increasing capacity, improving reliability, and reducing travel times between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

The new Beenleigh station will be relocated approximately 650 metres to the north, closer to the town centre and key community facilities. The updated design reflects community feedback and includes improved pedestrian and cycling connections, a new bus interchange, and expanded parking facilities. Relocating the station allows construction to proceed while keeping the existing station operational, minimising impacts on commuters during the works. The area will also include local road upgrades and traffic flow improvements to support the growing Beenleigh community and surrounding suburbs.

Queensland Transport and Main Roads Minister Brent Mickelberg said the release of the updated design is about delivering a fresh start for commuters in one of the state's fastest growing regions. "The Queensland Government is committed to delivering the infrastructure Queenslanders need. We said we would build a more reliable transport network, and that is exactly what we are doing through projects like the Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail," Mr Mickelberg said. "The new precinct will support more frequent and reliable services, reduce network congestion, and make it easier for people to get where they need to go."

The community can view the updated designs and provide feedback until 31 May. The upgraded Beenleigh station precinct is jointly funded by the Queensland Government and the Australian Government.
