Location

Yeronga is a railway station operated by Queensland Rail on the Beenleigh line. It opened in 1885 and serves the Brisbane suburb of Yeronga. It is a ground level station, featuring one island platform with two faces and one side platform.

Services

Yeronga station is served by all stops Beenleigh line services from Beenleigh, Kuraby and Coopers Plains to Bowen Hills and Ferny Grove.[1]

Until June 2011, Yeronga was also served by services to Corinda via the Yeerongpilly–Corinda line.[2][3]

Cross River Rail

As a part of Cross River Rail, Yeronga and 6 other stations were rebuilt. As a result, there was a bus service (Bus route 109) that operates from Boggo Road to Moorooka railway station to supplement the closing of the stations and to alleviate congestion.

The new station reopened on 28 March 2022.[4] The station has new lifts and a new footbridge to go over Fairfield Road, connecting up to local stores, enhancing accessibility. Remaining construction activities will continue at the station until mid-2023, including the addition of a third platform.
