Overview

The Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail (LGC) project will unlock additional train services to meet the growing travel demand between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and is a key investment to support the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The project will double the tracks from two to four between Kuraby and Beenleigh, deliver modern and accessible stations, remove level crossings, improve park 'n' ride facilities, and provide improved walking and cycling connections to stations along the 20-kilometre section of upgraded tracks.
