Rochedale is a busway station operated by Translink on the South East Busway. It opened in 2025 and serves the Brisbane suburb of Rochedale. It is a ground level station, featuring two side platforms.
History The Rochedale Busway Station was proposed in 2007 to include: a Park 'n' Ride facility with approximately 750 car-parking spaces; bus turnaround facilities and access to allow entry and exit to the busway by local bus routes; other mixed-use development.Main Roads Pacific Motorway Transit Project Newsletter #3 (May 2007)
As part of the Stage 2 upgrades to the Pacific Motorway between Eight Mile Plains and Daisy Hill, the South East Busway was extended to Springwood busway station, including the construction of Rochedale busway station. The Park 'n' Ride was changed to have a capacity of approximately 400 vehicles.
Construction began in August 2022. Originally scheduled for a 2024 opening. Construction was complete in February 2025.
On 19 February 2025, State MP for Springwood Mick de Brenni accused the Crisafulli state government of unnecessarily delaying the opening of the station, stating, "the signs are up, the asphalt is laid and even the service boards for the buses have been lit up for months now."
Translink announced on 24 April 2025 that the station would open 12 May 2025, with changes to timetables for both local buses and express buses to Brisbane City.
