Boggo Road railway station is a railway station currently under construction as part of the Cross River Rail project in the Brisbane suburb of Dutton Park. It is planned for a health, science and knowledge cluster and mixed-use precinct to develop around the station.[1]
To be built as an underground station, it will consist of two platforms with connections to Park Road station and Boggo Road busway station.[2] Construction commenced in September 2019, with it scheduled to open in 2024.[3][4] The platforms are positioned 19 metres below ground.[5]

The station will provide pedestrian access between the Princess Alexandra Hospital and the Boggo Road Precinct, currently separated by road and rail infrastructure.
Construction[]
Because of the fractured ground conditions the station was constructed using a combination of open box and cavern construction.[5] Roadheaders excavating the tunnel from Woolloongabba railway station reached the cavern in September 2021.[6]
