Cross River Rail

As a part of Cross River Rail, Yeronga and 7 other stations will be rebuilt. As a result, there is a bus service (Bus route 109) that operates from Boggo Road (Park Road Station) to Moorooka Train Station to supplement the closing of the stations and to alleviate congestion. The new station will have lifts and better accessibility and is expected to reopen on 28 March. It will add a new 3rd platform and the new footbridge will go over the road, connecting up to local stores.
