Darra to Springfield Transport Corridor Project - Stage 1


Stage 1

The first project for The Horizon Alliance is Stage 1 of the much anticipated Darra to Springfield Transport Corridor (DSTC).

Stage 1 includes constructing a new passenger railway line from Darra to a station at Richlands and duplicating the Centenary Highway from two to four lanes from Richlands to meet with the existing Logan Motorway interchange at Carole Park. Stage 1 is due for completion in 2011.


Construction is progressing well and a number of milestones have already been achieved including:

  • July 2009 - opening the new Garden Road on-ramp
  • July 2009 - opening the first section of the new Progress Road overbridge
  • October 2009 - opening of a new section of the northbound carriageway of the Centenary Highway
  • November 2009 - opening of the new Progress Road on-ramp
  • November 2009 - completion of the Richlands railway station car park
  • January 2010 - opening of the new Garden Road off-ramp

The project site office located on the corner of Progress and Garden Roads, Richlands, next to the location of the future Richlands railway station.

The DSTC project is the first major integrated road and rail project for South East Queensland.

The DSTC project is part of the Queensland Government’s $124 billion South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program 2009-2026, which will help maintain quality of life for the region.
