Services will be temporarily cancelled from a ferry terminal in Brisbane's west so a multimillion-dollar upgrade can be completed.

A development application for the upgrade to the 1996-constructed Guyatt Park ferry terminal was lodged on Monday.

Brisbane City Council has been gradually upgrading its terminals to meet disability standards and increase flood resilience following the 2011 floods.

More than 180,000 passengers travel to and from the Guyatt Park terminal every year.
