Council is committed to providing frequent and reliable ferry services to help Kangaroo Point residents connect to the people and places you love.
With our record investment in new infrastructure nearing completion, the iconic Kangaroo Point Bridge opening on 15 December and the Mowbray Park ferry terminal upgrade also opening soon, we expect the way people travel and use ferry services in Kangaroo Point will change.
As a result, we are looking at how our existing ferry services can better support Kangaroo Point residents. That's why we've developed a plan to better link Kangaroo Point with three new frequent Cross River routes dedicated to serving these terminals.
The new routes will operate at least every 15 minutes, providing frequent and reliable connections to the CBD and New Farm, as well as the wider CityCat network at Sydney Street, Riverside, and QUT Gardens Point terminals.
Your new ferry network will:
introduce more frequent services
provide better connections to the high-frequency CityCat network
provide more capacity and improved reliability.
Have your say:
We now want to hear what Kangaroo Point residents think of our plan. You can read below what is being proposed and have your say by completing the survey, which should take no more than 5 minutes to complete. Your feedback will help us understand your experiences when travelling on our ferry network.
Feedback on the Kangaroo Point ferry improvements will close at 11.59pm, 3 November 2024.

Brisbane City Council wants to improve ferry services to and from Kangaroo Point. We have developed a plan that will deliver more frequent and less crowded services, while also providing better connections to CityCat Services.
It is proposed that the existing CityHopper and Inner-City Cross River routes be reconfigured into three new higher-frequency Cross River routes:
Maritime Museum - QUT Gardens Point
Holman street - Riverside
Dockside - Sydney Street
These new routes will operate at least every 15 minutes.

CityHopper services currently operate to all Inner-City terminals except for QUT Gardens Point. These services are:
infrequent - operating only every 36 minutes
often full - with limited capacity for only 60 customers
much slower than CityCats due to speed restrictions
Inner-City Cross River services operate every half-hour between Holman Street and Howard Smith Wharves via Dockside.
These services operate independently and connections to CityCat services are not planned.
