Roads closed, trains late after storm

Roads closed, trains late after storm
Marissa Calligeros
December 16, 2010 - 3:46PM

This afternoon's violent storms have caused chaos on south-east Queensland roads and public transport network.

The Ipswich Motorway has come to a halt due to a metre of water over the road at Riverview. Traffic is being diverted via Mine Street where possible.

Traffic on the M1 has also slowed to a crawl thanks to an earlier multi-vehicle crash near Marquis Street at Greenslopes.

There was a minor landside on Moggill Road near Rafting Ground Road, which has now been cleared.

Traffic lights have also stopped working across the city due to widespread blackouts.

Power lines have fallen across Penelope Street near the intersection of Lytton Road at Murarrie.

Bus and train services across the south-east have been delayed between 30 and 60 minutes as a result of the wild weather.

Trains on Cleveland, Beenleigh and Gold Coast, Ferny Grove and Ipswich lines have been delayed due to point and signal faults caused by the storms.

Services on the Beenleigh and Gold Coast lines are suspended between Banoon and Coopers Plains stations, due to a level crossing incident at Boundary Road.

Trains have also been suspended on the Ferny Grove line between Bowen Hills and Ferny Grove stations due an overhead power fault. Buses are being provided for passengers on the Ferny Grove line between the two stations.

Caboolture, Sunshine Coast, Shorncliffe, Airport and Doomben line trains have been delayed between Wooloowin and Toombul due to a signal failure at Eagle Junction train station.

All Ipswich region bus and FlexiLink services have been delayed up to 60 minutes.

The Bell Street bus stops and FlexiLink stops in Ipswich CBD have been temporarily moved to the Transit Centre due to storm damage.
