The LNP launched a petition after the Queen's death calling for the rail project to be renamed the "Elizabeth Line", and will go ahead with the proposed name change if they win the state election.
The opposition launched an online petition in the wake of the Queen’s death in September 2022, calling for the multi-billion-dollar rail project to be renamed after the late monarch.
In response to an enquiry from ABC Radio Brisbane, the LNP said they received close to 5,000 signatures in support of their push to call Cross River Rail the Elizabeth Line.
The opposition also confirmed that, should they win the state election in October, they will go ahead with the proposed name change.
“Legibility and familiarity are important aspects in the naming of stations and lines to ensure customers are able to clearly identify destinations and easily move around the network.”
Mr Mellish said work to review Cross River Rail station names would begin in “due course”.
Within Brisbane, the hospital at Coopers Plains and the Supreme and District Courts in the CBD are both named after Queen Elizabeth II.
