Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail

We're connecting our growing communities with more frequent and reliable train services between Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast.

South East Queensland (SEQ) has experienced significant growth over the last 2 decades. This growth is expected to continue with an extra 1.5 million people living in the region by 2036. To harness this growth and support our region's thriving communities we must keep evolving the rail network so that it plays a bigger role in moving people around SEQ.

To support our growing population and rail patronage demand between Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast, we need to double the number of Beenleigh and Gold Coast train services over the next 20 years.

The rail line between Kuraby and Beenleigh is a key capacity bottleneck on the network. Currently, trains between Kuraby and Beenleigh share a single track in each direction, limiting the number of peak services that can run. During peak periods, all-stop Beenleigh trains need to be held to one side to allow Gold Coast express trains to pass through. 

The Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail project will address this problem by doubling the number of tracks between Kuraby and Beenleigh to allow the free movement of both all-stops and express trains. The project will also upgrade stations to improve accessibility, remove 5 level crossings, improve park ‘n’ ride facilities and provide a new continuous active travel path connecting to stations along the 20km section of upgraded tracks.

Key features

Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail will deliver:

  • double the capacity of the Gold Coast rail line and reduce waiting times at stations between Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast
  • approximately 20km of new tracks and rail systems between Kuraby station and Beenleigh station, increasing the corridor from 2 to 4 tracks
  • better connected communities through accessible upgrades at stations and dedicated active transport facilities and paths along the corridor 
  • improved road network efficiency and reduced peak hour traffic congestion through intersection upgrades and level crossing removals at Kuraby, Woodridge, Bethania, Holmview, and Beenleigh
  • new train signalling technology between Salisbury and Varsity Lakes
  • extension of the cattle siding at Holmview.

Current status

In late 2023, we completed community engagement on the refined reference design for the project, as well as the detailed design for the Loganlea Station Relocation project.

The Contractor procurement process is progressing and in March 2024 we shortlisted parties to tender for the delivery of three packages of work:

Logan and Gold Coast Rail Package – will deliver the major rail works between Kuraby and Beenleigh including doubling the number tracks from two to four, station upgrades, three level crossing removals (at Woodridge, Holmview and Beenleigh), local road works and active transport connections.

Logan and Gold Coast Open Level Crossing Removals Package – will remove two level crossings at Beenleigh Road, Kuraby and Station Road, Bethania and replace with new road-over-rail bridges, improving safety and journey times for road and rail users.

Loganlea Station Relocation Project – will upgrade and relocate Loganlea station to better connect customers with nearby education, community and health services – particularly Logan Hospital.

We expect to award contracts in late 2024, subject to government approvals.

Construction timeframes will be confirmed once contractors have been appointed.

Field investigations

You might notice some field investigations being conducted at selected sites throughout the corridor. This information will help us understand more about the existing conditions and environment along the rail corridor.

Additional information

Information for property owners

Property owners who have been informed they are directly impacted by this project may be eligible to apply for a strategic purchase of their property. A strategic purchase allows owners to voluntarily apply to sell their property to the department before the formal resumption process.

While there is no difference between the compensation assessment process of a strategic purchase and compulsory acquisition, a strategic purchase can provide property owners with more flexibility in the timing of the sale.

If you have been advised that your property is directly impacted by the project, you may be eligible to apply for a strategic purchase. Contact the project team to understand your eligibility and to apply.

We want to ensure that people interested in buying property in the area are also aware of the project. A Transport and Main Roads property search will show if there is a property requirement for the land. Potential owners can contact the project team with any questions.

Information for local business owners

We've been visiting local businesses along the project corridor to provide an update on the project and to gather information and feedback to inform future planning. 

Local business owners are encouraged to register their details with us by contacting the project team on 1800 957 066 or by emailing LGC.Business@tmr.qld.gov.au.

Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail location map

Map details the train line from Beenleigh to Kuraby
The project is located along the rail corridor from Kuraby station to Beenleigh station. In the background both the road network and the Logan River are shown. The map identifies the alignment of the tracks and shows stations including (from north to south) Kuraby, Trinder Park, Woodridge, Kingston, Loganlea, Bethania, Edens Landing, Holmview and Beenleigh. The track alignment shows the curved section of track at the existing Trinder Park station location and where the new section of straightened track will run in its place. The map also shows the locations of five level crossings that will be removed as part of the project. These are located at Kuraby, Woodridge, Bethania and Holmview station in Beenleigh.
