<strong>Project</strong> benefits<br />
<strong>Rail</strong><br />
The new rail line will improve accessibility to<br />
businesses in Brisbane’s central business district<br />
and other centres along the city rail network.<br />
Delivering sustainable public transport options will<br />
help manage the rapid growth in this region.<br />
The new infrastructure will help encourage<br />
business development and job creation. Around<br />
3200 jobs are expected to be created over the life<br />
of the project.<br />
Road<br />
Duplicating the Centenary Highway southbound<br />
will reduce congestion and improve travel times<br />
during afternoon peak periods.<br />
Duplicating the Centenary Highway northbound<br />
and lengthening the Springfield Parkway on-ramp<br />
will improve merging onto the highway, and reduce<br />
congestion on local roads during morning peak<br />
periods.<br />
Upgrading the Centenary Highway will improve<br />
safety with northbound and southbound traffic<br />
separated by a new central median.<br />
