Queensland Premier Campbell Newman reveals plans for double-decker bus and train underground transport network for Brisbane Brisbane's underground arrives soon. Take a journey through the tunnel THIS is the first glimpse inside Brisbane's public transport future where commuters will travel deep underground to catch their choice of bus or train. The three multimodal stations - at Woolloongabba, George Street and Roma Street - will form the yet-to-be-named underground network which the Newman Government has committed to complete by 2021. RELATED: Green light for Brisbane underground The $5 billion double-decker public transport tunnel will link Dutton Park to Bowen Hills and solve the massive peak hour congestion problems plaguing the bus and train networks. Premier Campbell Newman yesterday insisted his determination to complete the project was just as strong as when he announced his tunnel plan in 2002 during the lord mayoralty race. Brisbane's proposed underground train and bus system. "It is a plan we said we would undertake and essentially it has been delivered," he said. This is a similar sort of day for me, this is a very big project and I am particularly excited because it's such an important public transport project. We are going to make this happen in the same way we made the other tunnels and bridge projects happen. What do you think of the proposed design? The underground network, which will be the subject of a naming competition, is a fusion of the Cross River Rail and Suburbs to City projects with several modifications, including dumping plans for a Dutton Park station and moving the inner-city station from Albert Street to George Street. Mr Newman said the project now required no property resumptions while a George Street station would work better for new entertainment precinct plans and university students. "There is always debate about where we should locate something but it's felt from a council perceptive and from a town planning perspective that this is a very good location," he said. The Government is considering private-sector funding models in a bid to have minimal impact on the Budget and borrowings, including paying access fees to any eventual owner. "We believe we will be certainly keeping the State's finances solid and sound," Treasurer Tim Nicholls said. Tourism and Transport Forum chief executive Ken Morrison said Brisbane's CBD would grow substantially over the next 20 years and the underground network was the type of infrastructure that the city would need. "The project will deliver better services for both residents and workers in the CBD and, importantly, give visitors better access to the Gabba and the proposed new entertainment precinct on George Street," he said. However, Stop Brisbane Coal Trains spokesman John Gordon questioned how more coal trains would be running through Brisbane suburbs in the future because of the network. "The Government doesn't want the people of Brisbane to know about the increased coal train capacity that will come with this proposal," he said.
