Construction of The Springfield Line

The station is the junction where the Springfield Line outlined under the South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program joins the Ipswich line. The station was expanded with two additional platforms to enable services for the Springfield Line which commenced to Richlands in January 2011. During construction a hand grenade was found by workers and then safely disposed of by army personnel. The car park was expanded to include 60 new car park spaces and 40 extra cycle lockers.

    To find the mind’s construction in the face:
    He was a gentleman on whom I built
    An absolute trust.”

    “The real dividing line between early childhood and middle childhood is not between the fifth year and the sixth year—it is more nearly when children are about seven or eight, moving on toward nine. Building the barrier at six has no psychological basis. It has come about only from the historic-economic-political fact that the age of six is when we provide schools for all.”
    —James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
