Cross River Rail - European Train Control System (ETCS)
Cross River Rail is a new 10.2km rail line from Dutton Park to Bowen Hills, which includes 5.9km of twin tunnels under the Brisbane River and the CBD.
​
The Queensland Government is investing in ETCS, a new signalling system that will enable increased capacity on the inner-city rail network, enhance safety and allow the wider SEQ rail network to run more efficiently.
​
Over the coming months, the Cross River Rail Delivery Authority will work with the consortia to finalise the project schedule.
​
The ETCS technology is a world-class train signalling system which will add capacity and efficiency to our rail network.
ETCS features are important for the safe operation of trains through the Cross River Rail twin tunnels, making our rail network work smarter and helping us to run more trains more often.
