Moggill Road is a major road in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It commences at High Street at Toowong and terminates at the Moggill Ferry in Moggill. It is part of State Route 33. The road carried an average of 39,305 vehicles per day between July and December 2014.^[1]

It passes through the Brisbane suburbs of Toowong, Taringa, Indooroopilly, Chapel Hill, Kenmore, Pullenvale, Pinjarra Hills, Bellbowrie and Moggill.

It stretches 20.6 km (13 mi). $14 million worth of road works started in 2010, $32 million in 2009, following a further $27 million completed in 2008.

Flooding[edit]

During the 2010–2011 Queensland floods, Moggill Road flooded in a number of places, including:

around the intersections with Market Street and Witton Road, Chapel Hill^[2]
around Pullen Pullen Creek at Pinjarra Hills and Bellowrie^[3]

The flooding causes the suburbs of Bellbowrie, Moggill and Karana Downs to be cut off, leading to shortages of food and medical supplies.^[4]

Upgrade[edit]

Intersection upgrade[edit]

A project to upgrade the intersection with Brookfield Road, at a cost of $25 million, was in the planning stage in May 2022.^[5]

Major intersections[edit]

The entire road is in the Brisbane local government area.
