TRANSPORT
The existing Cannon Hill bus facility is located within the Cannon Hill Kmart Plaza, approximately 11km east of the Brisbane CBD (Figure 1) and located at the intersection of Creek Road and Wynnum Road intersection. Buses enter the facility via the Creek Road / Pickwick Street intersection, and the facility currently includes six independent sawtooth bus bays, 40m of marked layover area, an airconditioned passenger waiting area, driver facilities and a park ‘n’ ride with capacity for 13 vehicles.
In 2019 the business case for the Cannon Hill Bus Facility (this project) was completed. The business case investigated the upgrading of the existing bus facility to meet accessibility requirements, passenger amenity and bus operational requirements.
The business case confirmed the functional role of the facility within the network and has identified the extent of upgrades required for the station to provide public transport services in line with TransLink strategic planning. The key objectives of this project are to upgrade the existing facility to meet DDA / DSAPT accessibility requirements, improving passenger amenities and bus operational requirements, that is consistent with meeting the Passenger Transport and Infrastructure Investment Program (PTIIP) objectives to deliver Passenger Transport (PT) Infrastructure.
