The rail line provides a significant public transport link between Redcliffe and the Brisbane CBD and delivers the vital infrastructure to connect the major growth corridors of North Lakes, Mango Hill, Murrumba Downs with employment opportunities.

The project includes new stations for Kallngur, Murrumba Downs, Mango Hill, Mango Hill East, Rothwell and Kippa-Ring.
