GOVERNMENT INLAND RAIL PROJECT: A GAME-CHANGER FOR BRISWEST
The Inland Rail Project is one of Australia’s most significant infrastructure developments, and it’s set to have a transformative impact on logistics, transportation, and warehousing across Queensland and beyond. For businesses considering moving to or investing in BrisWest, this massive rail project offers a unique opportunity to benefit from cutting-edge infrastructure that will drive growth and efficiency.
What is the Inland Rail Project?
The Australian Government’s Inland Rail Project spans 1,700 km, connecting Melbourne to Brisbane via regional New South Wales and Queensland. Designed to improve the national freight network, Inland Rail will significantly reduce travel times and boost the capacity for moving goods along the eastern seaboard.
This project is designed for the long term, providing an efficient, cost-effective solution for the nation’s growing freight demands. With the ability to handle double-stacked trains up to 1,800 metres long, it is expected to reshape freight movement in Australia.

This section of Inland Rail will connect BrisWest directly to a world-class freight corridor, opening up efficient access to Brisbane’s ports, the southern states, and key inland distribution hubs.
With freight rail access so close, companies in transport, logistics, distribution, and manufacturing will benefit from faster delivery times, lower transportation costs, and the ability to move goods at a much larger scale.
