LNP Unveils Bold Brisbane Bus System Overhaul Ahead of City Hall Elections
  • The LNP has proposed a comprehensive plan to revamp Brisbane's bus system, focusing on efficiency and connectivity.

  • Their strategy includes 'two-seat' bus trips that link suburban buses to a Metro hub, aiming to expedite over half of the commuter journeys.

  • Two key Metro lines are highlighted: one from Eight Mile Plains to Roma Street Station, and another connecting the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital to the University of Queensland.

  • The initiative promises three additional bus routes, more frequent services on eight routes, and the redesign of eleven suburban routes to integrate with the Brisbane Metro.

  • By reducing bus congestion, particularly at the Cultural Centre at South Brisbane, the plan envisions a city that operates continuously around the clock.

  • The transportation improvements are part of preparations for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

  • This announcement is a significant part of the LNP's campaign in the final week before the City Hall election.
