Monohull CityFerry with no upper deck

CityFerry is an inner city ferry service operated in Brisbane, Queensland by Metrolink Queensland, a joint venture of Brisbane City Council and French company, Transdev.

The area covered by the CityFerry service differs from that of the CityCat ferry service in that it is smaller, and is operated with 12 monohull ferries, varying slightly in appearance from one another.

The monohulls also operate cross river services between Bulimba and Teneriffe, and between Kangaroo Point and the Brisbane CBD.
