The Springfield Central Station Park ‘n’ Ride is a 5 storey car park building funded by the State Government. The carpark features a naturally ventilated sculptural form that wraps around a central double-helix ramp. With traffic ascending and descending on each spiral, this maximises the circulation efficiency of vehicles. Bringing colour, depth and interest, the anodised aluminium purlins on the facade provide shading during the day and light spill mitigation during the evening.

Department of Transport and Main Roads commissioned GHD Woodhead to undertake the project design, and QBuild to develop the contract documentation, undertake the tender process and manage the construction stage.    

The free to use park ‘n’ ride has five parking levels and brings customer parking spaces across the Springfield Central Station precinct to around 1100. This is nearly double the amount of previous carparking available at the Springfield Central Station and makes this park ‘n’ ride one of the largest in Queensland. More spaces for commuters to park and then take public transport taking more cars off the roads.

Pace Projects Group provided Project Management / Stakeholder Management /Programme Management / Procurement Management services to QBuild.
