Transportation
Brisbane has a comprehensive public
transport system, with high frequencies
in the inner city but very poor service
levels in many outer suburbs. There
are several electric suburban rail
lines operated by CityTrain, a division
of Queensland Rail. Buses within the
City of Brisbane are operated by Brisbane
Transport, a business arm of Brisbane
City Council, as are ferries and CityCats
(catamaran ferries) on the Brisbane
River. Buses outside the City of Brisbane
boundaries are operated by private
sector companies contracted by the
State Government. Two busways have
opened in recent years in Brisbane
- the South-East Busway and the Inner-Northern
Busway, with two more busways and
new rail lines planned.
