Rail customers are being reminded Queensland Rail will return to a full South East Queensland weekday timetable across all rail lines from tomorrow, Monday 16 November.
The reduced timetable was introduced in May due to a maintenance backlog caused by union protected industrial action, with services progressively restored as maintenance backlog work was completed.
Major lines will return to a six-to-ten-minute average service frequency during the weekday peak periods and express services will be restored.
Queensland Rail Head of Corporate Affairs Nev Conway said the return to the full timetable was welcome news for customers.
“All 8,503 weekly services will return from Monday 16 November delivering more travel options, improved service frequency and greater comfort for our customers,” Mr Conway said.
“The restoration of express trains along key corridors will also improve travel times, so we’d encourage customers to check Journey Planner before they board to familiarise themselves with journey options.
“Queensland Rail thanks customers for their patience and understanding while our services were reduced due to union-protected industrial action and we remain focused on delivering the safe, reliable and world-class rail services.”
