An 80-metre barge carrying a crane jib the height of the Wheel of Brisbane will be located on the river between South Bank Parklands and Riverside Expressway. This barge, along with a number of other barges will soon start to build a new section of public waterfront area within the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane precinct – called “The Landing’’.

The Landing will be built out over the river’s edge, stretching almost 300 metres in length with the river naturally flowing underneath and providing new recreational and event space in the CBD.

The Landing will feature garden beds, terraced seating on the river’s edge and lush lawns – culminating in a beautiful new space for people to relax in, and to accommodate future public events.
