The Dakabin Station and multilevel carpark is an important modal interchange project, part of the Queensland Rail Station Accessibility Upgrade Programme (SAUP) Tranche 3.

Improved accessibility at Dakabin Station enables transport services, connectivity, safety and amenity for all rail customers with train platforms made accessible via paths, ramps and lifts. The upgrade works include:

New covered footbridge with through lifts, ramps, stairs
Raised section of platform encompassing the core zone and assisted boarding point
New waiting shelters in the core area
Upgraded accessible parking spaces
New station building positioned centrally to boarding point, new customer ticket window and toilets
New wayfinding and platform signage
Upgraded services including security and lighting
New services to the site including water and sewerage
New station entry area, forecourts and improved precinct amenity.

In addition to accessibility upgrades, the project incorporates:

A new multi-storey commuter carpark with 350 car spaces
Upgrade and realignment of Thompson Road
Two new indented PTIM intermediate bus stops and shelters
A secure bicycle enclosure facility

The design integrates prefabricated elements to reduce the impact of onsite construction and enable the station’s continued operation. The robust materials palette and product selection carefully consider the enduring and public interface of rail infrastructure while providing improved amenity.

The carpark is designed to sit within the landscape, minimising its bulk and scale. A new forecourt space welcomes commuters to the station platform, improving the overall experience of rail travel.
