Through truck restrictions—Brisbane Urban Corridor

The Brisbane Urban Corridor is an urban arterial road corridor which includes:

• Mount Gravatt-Capalaba Road
• Kessels Road
• Riawena Road
• Granard Road.

The corridor is a link between the Warrego/Cunningham Highways, Ipswich Motorway and the Gateway Motorway/Bruce Highway.

A 'Through Truck Restriction' has been in place since 2007, responding to community concerns about volumes of heavy vehicles travelling through this corridor. Heavy vehicles (excluding motorised caravans) cannot access this corridor without a local destination within the corridor – the Logan and Gateway Motorways are to be used instead.

This heavy vehicle access restriction is in place 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A 'No Truck' sign is shown on the route as per Queensland road rules.

Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras are in use on this corridor.
