TransLink's bright orange Concourse Seats add warmth and comfort to the refurbished station.
More than 40 Sensation Orange Concourse Seats, the majority wall-mounted and some with legs, have been installed at Queen Street Bus Station as part of a $3 million makeover in time for the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.
“The Queen Street Bus Station is 29 years old, and in need of an upgrade to make it a better, brighter and more comfortable place for passengers and staff,” says TransLink.
“The upgrade will provide an improved station environment with a modern, brighter design, and upgraded features for people with a disability.”
The refurbishment is the station’s first since its opening in 1989, and includes new ceiling, floor and wall tiles and wall panels, as well as the colourful two and three-seater Concourse Seats.
The transformation aims to please Games travellers as well as the 80,000 passengers who use the station each week.
Contractor James Trowse Constructions has also upgraded handrails and lighting to ensure the station meets disability compliance.
Additionally, each DDA-compliant Concourse unit features armrests to help sit and stand up from the seat.
