TransLink Northern Busway QLD, Australia (2012)

TransLink’s $444m Northern Busway project saw new stations connect Brisbane’s northern suburbs to Brisbane City, shopping centres and workplaces.

The Lutwyche Busway Station was designed by Cottee Parker Architects and completed in June 2012 by Thiess John Holland. In its first year TransLink says the network supported more than 9.7 million trips.

By 2016 the busway should cater for 47,000 public transport trips per day,“more than five times the current number,” says BrisConnections CEO Dr Ray Wilson.

Cottee Parker Architects specified a suite of Street Furniture Australia products to furnish the new station.

Classic Galleria benches and seats, in aluminium finish, feature in the bus terminals and outdoor areas, alongside Arqua drinking fountains, Wide bollards and Plato bins.

Sydney Trains

The Mall DDA Seat, Concourse 4-seater and Aero Leaning Rail have been chosen to furnish numerous train stations across NSW. As part of a $33 million upgrade announced by then NSW Minister for Transport Gladys Berejiklian in July 2014, new lighting, landscaping, paintwork and public furniture will be installed to improve Sydney’s stations.
