The Grey St passenger loading and taxi zones are now located further south towards South Bank and there is also now a loading zone on the opposite side of Grey St outside South Brisbane rail station.

    The QPAC entry from Grey Street to the QPAC Café and Cascade Court is temporarily closed to pedestrians, however access via the pedestrian tunnel entrance remains.
