The Park Road rail station in Dutton Park is being rechristened as the Boggo Road rail station. The change reflects the station’s integration with the Boggo Road busway, creating a major transport hub where passengers can seamlessly transfer between the Beenleigh, Gold Coast, and Cleveland rail lines and bus services.
The upcoming Cross River Rail project will further enhance the station’s significance by adding two new underground rail platforms. Translink collected customer feedback that indicated a strong preference for a unified name at this location.
Translink, Queensland Rail, and the Cross River Rail Delivery Authority collaborated on the name change, receiving overwhelming support from key stakeholders.
The rebranding process kicked off this week with the installation of new signage, and further platform signage and computer systems will be updated over the next six to twelve months.
Minister for Transport and Main Roads, Bart Mellish, emphasised that the government is not only making public transport more affordable with the introduction of 50-cent fares but also actively improving the network’s user-friendliness.
He stated that the name change directly responds to customer feedback and aims to make the network easier to navigate.
The Minister highlighted Boggo Road as an iconic landmark and stressed that the change is all about simplifying travel for Queenslanders.
