QUT Gardens Point ferry wharf is located on the northern side of the Brisbane River serving the Brisbane central business district. It is served by Transdev Brisbane Ferries' CityCat services.[1][2]
Location
QUT Gardens Point wharf is within walking distance of the Queensland University of Technology Gardens Point campus and the City Botanic Gardens. The northern access to the Goodwill Bridge for pedestrians and cyclists lies to the south of this wharf. The Parliament House is a short walk to the east. It connects to the Brisbane central business district via William Street to the north-east.
The wharf was destroyed during the January 2011 Brisbane floods.[3] A temporary replacement opened on 18 April 2011.[4][5] The temporary wharf closed in early 2015 to allow a new permanent wharf to be built. The new wharf opened on 24 April 2015.[6]
