South Bank 1 & 2 Ferry Wharves are wharves on the Brisbane River in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. They are part of the BCC Ferries network.
Location
They are in Zone 1 of the TransLink integrated public transport system.
They are located in the South Bank Parklands near the Queensland Cultural Centre. They provide the closest transport access point to the Streets beach, the Wheel of Brisbane and the Maritime museum. It is also close to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre and the Griffith University conservatorium. The western end of the Victoria Bridge is close to the wharves
Description
The wharves comprise two separate piers joined at one end in a 'U' shape with the open arms ending in pontoons, each with one docking station. Pontoon 1 lies upstream of pontoon 2 and CityCats coming downstream tie up at pontoon 1 while those coming upstream tie up at pontoon 2. There is no separate passenger waiting area for these wharves. However, tree shaded benches are present along the promenade that runs by the head of the piers. This terminal is used only by the CityCat service.
