To be built as an underground station directly beneath Albert Street, it will consist of two platforms. Construction commenced in October 2019, with it scheduled to open in 2026. The platforms are built at a depth of 31 metres.
The station will provide access to the mixed-use residential, employment and retail precinct adjoining the City Botanic Gardens, the financial district, Queen’s Wharf, the government precinct and Queensland University of Technology at Gardens Point. The precinct is expected to attract more than 67,000 commuters each weekday in 2036.
The station has two entrances. The main entrance lies to the south, while the second entrance is located to the north. A 40-storey, mixed-use commercial building at 101 Albert Street is to be built partially above the station.
