Roma Street Cross River Rail

Key details

The Roma Street Cross River Rail (CRR) Priority Development Area (PDA) was declared on 13 December 2019.

This PDA was declared at the request of the Cross River Rail Delivery Authority (CRRDA) to assist with the delivery of the CRR project, and to provide unique opportunities for urban development, economic stimulation, and job creation, including planning for integrated recreation and entertainment facilities.

The Roma Street CRR PDA is approximately 32 hectares. It is situated on the western edge of Brisbane’s city centre, providing major transit orientated redevelopment opportunities.

Development scheme

The Roma Street PDA Development Scheme (PDF icon 28 MB) is the regulatory document which assists with planning, carrying out, promoting, coordinating and controlling development within the PDA.

The Roma Street CRR PDA development scheme came into effect on 30 July 2021.

The Proposed Roma Street CRR PDA Development Scheme (PDF icon 24.7 MB) was available for public comment between 18 February to 1 April 2021.
