The Rochedale Busway Station is a proposed Busway Station to be built in Queensland Australia at Rochedale near Underwood Road as part of an extension to the South East Busway, planned to be completed in 2024. The station will be served by Translink bus routes.

Proposed Facilities

The Rochedale Busway Station was previously proposed in 2007 to include:

  • a Park'n'Ride facility with approximately 750 car-parking spaces;[1]
  • bus turnaround facilities and access to allow entry/exit to the Busway by local bus routes;
  • other mixed-use development.[2]

As part of the upgrade of the Pacific Motorway between Eight Mile Plains and Daisy Hill, the South East Busway will be extended to Springwood bus station, and Rochedale busway station will also be constructed. However, the park 'n' ride facility was changed to have a capacity of more than 400 vehicles.[3]

As of October 2021, the busway station is in the detailed design phase. The Pacific Highway upgrade and the busway station is expected to be completed in 2024.[4]
