Six South Brisbane train stations will be upgraded to ensure they meet accessibility standards for lifts, overpasses and bike racks to prepare for the Cross River Rail.

The state government is intending to renovate Fairfield, Yeronga, Yeerongpilly, Moorooka, Rocklea and Salisbury stations to coincide with the project.

Transport Minister Mark Bailey says the upgrades will make it easier for people with disabilities, parents with prams and travellers with luggage to use Brisbane’s public transport system.
