Everything Else
Getting to University of Queensland
It's quick and easy to travel to UQ via public transport and there are a two different options.
There is a bus stop just out the front of the building where you can catch a 192 bus. They leave every 30mins and take 10mins to get there. You can also catch a ferry which is a nice journey across the river. Its a 10 minute walk down to the ferry stop and the ferries run about every 15 minuets and only take 5 minuets to get to uni. Both the bus and the ferry are less frequent in the evenings so you might need to plan your timing more carefully if coming back later at night.
