Murarrie - Brisbane

Location 8km from CBD.
Features Murarrie rail station, proximity to Gateway Motorway.
Commentary An older area with many homes built in the post-war period, Murarrie has been thriving during the past few years thanks to the injection of a number of new residential brick-and-tile developments. Proximity to the Gateway Motorway makes the suburb convenient for accessing the main routes to the Gold and Sunshine coasts. Also convenient is the railway station that runs west to the city and east to Manly and the bay.

There are also several bus routes from Murarrie to neighbouring suburbs. Other facilities include the local State primary school, an RSL club, the Brisbane Polo Grounds and Murarrie Recreation Ground. The main shopping facilities are located in neighbouring Cannon Hill. Part of the suburb is located on the Brisbane River and this area is devoted to commercial maritime operations. The surrounding area is devoted to a light industrial precinct, which is under the flight path.
