The Gold Coast Rapid Transit project is a nation building, public transport project that aims to reduce congestion and improve public transport services at the Gold Coast – one of Australia’s fastest growing cities.

 

The project is being delivered by the Queensland Government (through the Department of Transport and Main Roads) in partnership with the Australian Government and Gold Coast City Council.

 

The Gold Coast Rapid Transit project has secured funding commitments totalling
AUD$949 million from three levels of government. These funds will deliver Stage One of the
system, which is the route from Griffith University to Broadbeach via the key activity centres of Southport and Surfers Paradise.

 

Delivery of Stage One is scheduled for 2014.
