QUT Gardens Point Ferry Wharf is a wharf on the Brisbane River in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is part of the BCC Ferries network.
Location
It is within walking distance of the QUT Gardens Point campus and the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens. The northern access to the Goodwill Bridge for pedestrians and cyclists lies to the south of this wharf. The Queensland Parliament is a short walk to the east. It connects to Brisbane CBD via William Street to the North-East.
Description
The Wharf comprises a single long jetty and a pontoon with two docking stations. However, there is not enough space for two City cats to dock at the same time and therefore only one of the docking stations is used at a time. A passenger waiting area exists a few meters from the wharf, under the raised portion of Riverside Express Motorway which is just beyond and to the east of the wharf. The wharf is surrounded by mangrove trees which continue downriver to join up with the mangroves that form a part of the mangrove walk in the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens.
This terminal is used only by the CityCat service network and not by the Cityferry service (both run by the BCC Ferries)
Connectivity
It is in Zone 1 of the TransLink integrated public transport system.
