Plan ahead for major road impacts during the Sunday Mail Transurban Bridge to Brisbane

The Sunday Mail Transurban Bridge to Brisbane fun run is again returning to the iconic Gateway Bridge on Sunday 8 September 2024. While the race is being run, there will be some closures affecting Transurban roads around Brisbane including:

  • Gateway Motorway southbound, between Nudgee and Murarrie
  • Gateway Bridge southbound (Sir Leo Hielscher Bridge)
  • Inner City Bypass
  • AirportlinkM7 including Campbell Street on and off ramps.

Transurban are working with the event organisers to minimise disruptions to motorists and ensure these roads are re-opened quickly and safely.

To keep Brisbane motorists moving while the southbound Gateway Bridge is closed, AirportlinkM7 southbound and Clem7 southbound tunnels will be toll free on Sunday 8 September 2024 between 5am and 9:30am. Heavy vehicles including B doubles carrying oversized loads or dangerous goods will need to plan ahead to avoid travelling during this time, or park at the Nudgee Service Centre until the bridge reopens.
