Bretts Wharf is located on the northern side of the Brisbane River serving the Brisbane suburb of Hamilton. Bretts Wharf was the terminus for downstream CityCat services until Apollo Road reopened in 2008.
History
Original wharf
Ferry services to Bretts wharf were withdrawn in December 1998 when services east of Norman Park were withdrawn.[1] Services were restored in January 2007.[2]
In January 2011 the wharf sustained a minor damage during the Brisbane floods.[3] It was repaired, reopening on 14 February 2011.[4][5] It closed on 12 June 2015 and is to be demolished.[6]
New wharf
On 13 June 2015, a new wharf opened 200 metres east of the original wharf. It was built in association with improvement works to the adjoining Kingsford Smith Drive.[6][7]
