Enoggera Interchange

Enoggera shows why there needs to be careful prioritising of which railway stations are turned into bus interchanges. The more attractive options are those with major retail facilities around it (like Mitchelton), major radial arterial roads (like Alderley) or express train stations. Enoggera has none of these things, Wardell St being orbital rather than radial, and that’s why it will always be less attractive as an interchange point.

Perhaps this could be fixed by a lot of investment in the surrounding area, but that requires buy-in from the council, the state and the business sector. In any case, we should try to avoid creating more Enoggeras going forward. I’ve spoken about this more here.
