Queensland residents draws to the attention of the house that Brunswick Street Station, despite being the third busiest railway station in Queensland, is in dismal condition. This railway station is in urgent need of upgrading to meet safety requirements, and to ensure appropriate access for people with a disability or mobility difficulty. This is no minor unused facility yet some areas are so unsafe Queensland Rail has fenced them off. Your petitioners therefore request the House to take immediate action to have the Brunswick Street Railway Station renovated to meet all access and safety standards, including the provision of lift access for disabled and mobility impaired patrons.
