Brisbane International Cycle Park is officially open. Located at Murarrie Recreation Reserve, it’s a cutting-edge facility intended to improve Brisbane’s bike infrastructure.
The park features an international-level criterium track, a 500-metre inline skating track, and a re-purposed shadow track for multiple recreational users. It provides a training ground for competitive cyclists while remaining open to skaters and riders of all ages and skill levels.
Expanding Cycling Infrastructure
The park is part of Brisbane’s long-term cycling strategy. Its location at 1238 Wynnum Road seamlessly connects to the city’s bikeway network, offering a convenient and accessible hub for training, racing, and casual riding.
State-of-the-Art Facilities
A highlight of the park is its multi-purpose clubhouse, which offers:
- Public amenities and change rooms
- Storage spaces for cycling clubs and community groups
- A viewing terrace overlooking the criterium and skating tracks
- Community meeting areas
The park also includes viewing mounds, which allow visitors to watch live cycling action in comfort.
Funding & Development
The project was developed as a joint initiative between the Queensland Government, Australian Government, and BCC. The clubhouse was funded by the Queensland Government, while the car park upgrade was fully supported by the Australian Government.
Construction commenced in early 2023 and was completed in late 2024. The park is now open daily from sunrise to sunset, providing an inclusive space for cycling and skating enthusiasts.
What’s Next?
With the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games on the horizon, the Brisbane International Cycle Park is expected to play a crucial role in preparing local and international athletes. The facility also strengthens the position of Murarrie as a key cycling destination, offering ongoing benefits for Brisbane’s sports and recreation scene.
