The Gold Coast Light Rail (G:link)

The Gold Coast Light Rail is Queensland’s first and only light rail system. Since opening in 2014, it has become a vital part of the Gold Coast’s public transport network.

Current Network (2026):

  • 19 stations stretching ~20 km from Helensvale to Broadbeach South
  • Flat fare of 50 cents per journey
  • Frequent service (every 7–10 minutes in peak)
  • 24-hour service on weekends
  • Modern, air-conditioned trams with free Wi-Fi

Stage 3 Extension (opening mid-2026) will add 8 new stations and extend the line to Burleigh Heads.
