Loganlea train station and park 'n' ride relocation

We are relocating Loganlea train station and the park 'n' ride closer to Logan Hospital.

Loganlea train station is an important transport hub that helps the surrounding community connect to South East Queensland (SEQ). With nearby health, education and community services, a safe and accessible station design is vital for those who live, visit and work in the area.

The Australian and Queensland governments are planning to relocate and upgrade Loganlea train station, to make sure it can accommodate future growth in the region and deliver the most benefits to the community.

The detailed design for the train station was completed in 2023, when it was released for community feedback.

Current status

Award of contract

The successful contractor to deliver works for the Loganlea Station Relocation project has been announced.

Martinus Degnan Joint Venture (JV) will start construction later this year on the new Loganlea station, relocating and upgrading the station to better connect customers to nearby health, education, and community services.

The $173.76 million project will see the station relocate to a new site directly opposite Logan Hospital, and closer to Loganlea TAFE and Loganlea State High School. Due to funding outcomes, TMR has reviewed the design, and will now provide an at-grade park 'n' ride at the new station, matching the current number of spaces available.

The current station will remain open while the new and improved Loganlea station is built.

The Department of Transport and Main Roads has also awarded the Open Level Crossing Removals package to Bielby Hull JV for the first of five level crossing removals along the project corridor. Learn more about the planned designed solutions.

We'll keep you updated as works progress at Loganlea station, and along the broader Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail project corridor.

The LGC Rail Package for the major rail works between Kuraby and Beenleigh including doubling the number tracks from two to four, station upgrades, three level crossing removals is expected to be awarded in late 2024, subject to government approvals.
