Tunnel opens to keep Brisbane moving
The new Adelaide Street tunnel is now open, marking another major milestone for Brisbane Metro.
By moving buses and metro services underground, we’re helping to break the bus bottleneck in the CBD to help keep Brisbane moving.
Since Brisbane Metro launched, more than 3.4 million trips have been taken, showing how quickly our city is embracing the step change from public transport to mass transit.
This first stage lays the foundation for future expansions, which have been identified in the Queensland Government’s 2032 Delivery Plan.
Our focus remains on delivering more services more often so you can spend less time travelling and more time enjoying our city.
