LOCAL TRAFFIC CHANGES FOR UPCOMING P!NK CONCERTS 


Closure of Lowths Bridge

Lowths Bridge will be closed from 3pm Wednesday 20 March to 12pm Sunday 24 March to allow concert infrastructure trucks to enter the venue via the bridge. Concerts of this size require a significant amount of infrastructure and this closure will allow the trucks to enter the venue safely.

Disruption to Stanley Street and Hanran Street (extension of Lowths Bridge closure)

There will be temporary traffic changes between the CBD side of Lowths Bridge and the intersection of Hanran Street for the P!NK concerts on Friday 22 and Saturday 23 March. 

Local access for residents and businesses will be managed by Traffic Controllers from 12pm to 12am on these dates, with a full street closure to occur for up to 30 minutes post-event to allow patrons to clear the venue safely. This closure will be managed by Queensland Police Services and during this time no vehicle movement will be allowed.  

This closure will allow maximum flow of patrons exiting the stadium after the concerts and reduce the risk of vehicles interacting with patrons. Exact timings are being finalised in line with show timings and will be updated once available.
