About this route

A 6pm Friday departure from Brisbane CBD to West End costs around A$12.25; the night-rate switch happens later in the evening.

The Queen Street Mall is closed to vehicles, so a CBD address on the mall means a set-down on Adelaide, Elizabeth or Albert Street. Over 2.9 km the meter alternates between two rates: a per-kilometre charge while the cab is moving, and a per-minute waiting rate once it drops below the slow-speed threshold.
