The Palaszczuk Government is committed to providing an integrated and efficient public transport network for Queensland. It is recognised that there is a high demand for park 'n' ride (PnR) facilities across South East Queensland. When planning for PnR infrastructure, it is essential to prioritise investment where it will create the greatest potential positive impact. The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) assesses the likely impact that a potential PnR development would have on the existing transport network, economic development and future land use outcomes. TMR also understands that managing demand for PnR also depends on achieving the best balance between all modes of transport, including walking, cycling, public transport and cars. As such, the types of services accessing the facility are also considered, such as feeder bus services and pedestrian access. TMR acknowledges the population growth in the nearby suburb of Warner and, while there are no plans to increase parking at Strathpine station, other stations along the Caboolture railway line are being considered for potential PnR expansions based upon existing demand, future growth and passenger travel behaviour.

  • Connecting SEQ 2031 an Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland
    Connecting SEQ 2031 An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland Tomorrow’s Queensland: strong, green, smart, healthy and fair Queensland AUSTRALIA south-east Queensland 1 Foreword Vision for a sustainable transport system As south-east Queensland's population continues to grow, we need a transport system that will foster our economic prosperity, sustainability and quality of life into the future. It is clear that road traffic cannot continue to grow at current rates without significant environmental and economic impacts on our communities. Connecting SEQ 2031 – An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland is the Queensland Government's vision for meeting the transport challenge over the next 20 years. Its purpose is to provide a coherent guide to all levels of government in making transport policy and investment decisions. Land use planning and transport planning go hand in hand, so Connecting SEQ 2031 is designed to work in partnership with the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009–2031 and the Queensland Government's new Queensland Infrastructure Plan. By planning for and managing growth within the existing urban footprint, we can create higher density communities and move people around more easily – whether by car, bus, train, ferry or by walking and cycling. To achieve this, our travel patterns need to fundamentally change by: • doubling the share of active transport (such as walking and cycling) from 10% to 20% of all trips • doubling the share of public transport from 7% to 14% of all trips • reducing the share of trips taken in private motor vehicles from 83% to 66%.

  • 2011 Public Transport Passenger Survey
    RAIL Back On Track: 2011 Public Transport Passenger Survey. Question 18 ‐ Comments: 12It annoys me that I often have to use a paper ticket rather than go card to get the cheapest fare home in the evening, when I am running an errand on the way. I normally catch a bus to the city (zone 1 to 1) then get a connecting bus home (zone 1 to 2). If I am doing something in the city that means I won't quite catch my 2nd bus within an hour it saves me more than a $1 to get a paper ticket at the start of my journey rather than using my go card (since the paper ticket has a 2 hr transfer). I dislke the situation of having to think about using paper or go card depending on how long I will be in the city. Go card should be priced so it is always the cheapest way...of course daily caps would solve this problem. 13Rail offpeak frequency continues to be a major disappointment for inner city areas especially with the success of the BUZ projects. 19Services are not frequent enough ‐ rail or bus. 21I believe that QR and Translink operate a safe public transport network. I value my personal safety when using public transport and don't want reductions in staff at stations reduced any further. Long distance trains must have toilets. Operational restrictions on the Sunshine Coast Line are as joke. 22With regards to bus frequency, on the whole the main trunk routes are pretty good, but it's where you're out in the suburbs trying to get from your house to one of those trunk routes or a train station that there's a problem.
