NightLink

NightLink is the name given to the all-night Translink services that leave Fortitude Valley, Brisbane City and Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast late Friday and Saturday nights.

History
NightLink services started as a six-month trial in December 2005. In the first weekend, the service was so popular that Translink had to put on extra buses to meet demand. In its first year of operation, close to 200,000 passenger trips were made on NightLink services. Originally rail services ran on all lines in greater Brisbane; those with low patronage were discontinued in August 2006 and replaced with buses. As of 14 October 2022, NightLink services no longer service Brunswick St, due to safety reasons. ==Routes==
Routes
These services help passengers get home safely after a night out. As they depart the CBD after 9:30pm, passengers can be dropped off anywhere along the route where it is safe to do so. There are now 17 NightLink bus routes and three NightLink train routes in operation. Buses NightLink bus routes run every hour from 1am to 5am and are prefixed by the letter "N". Most NightLink routes mirror the equivalent 'normal' service, although slight variations apply on some routes to maximise coverage. On the Gold Coast, the taxis can travel as far as Paradise Point in the north, Varsity Lakes in the south and Nerang in the west. ==See also==
