Gateway Motorway

The motorway was constructed to connect the then-recently opened Gateway Bridge to the Bruce Highway in the north and the South-East Freeway (renamed Pacific Motorway in 2000) in the south. Construction on the road commenced in March 1985 and it was opened to traffic in four stages between August and December 1986.

When first opened, the Gateway Bridge and supporting roads extended only to Airport Drive in the north and Lytton Road in the south. After completion of the entire route, it was named the Gateway Arterial Road, since the existence of three large roundabouts north of the Brisbane River disqualified it from being a motorway. To cope with the heavier than expected traffic, the government began upgrading the road in 1987, only a year after it opened. Duplication to four lanes and grade-separation was completed in several stages between 1989 and 1996.

In 1995, construction began on a southern extension to the Logan Motorway, creating the Southern Brisbane Bypass. The road was opened to traffic by Vaughan Johnson, then-Minister for Transport and Main Roads, on 13 May 1997.[http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/documents/tableOffice/TabledPapers/1997/4897T4198.pdf] Queensland Motorways Annual Report 1996-1997 Following this work, the road was renamed Gateway Motorway.

In 2007, construction began on the Gateway Upgrade Project, which duplicated the Gateway Bridge, added a deviation between Eagle Farm and Nudgee and upgraded the motorway south of the river. The duplicate Gateway Bridge was opened on 24 May 2010 and both bridges were renamed the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges. The original bridge was refurbished to match the new structure and was finished on 28 November 2010. The northern deviation was routed east from its old alignment (the old alignment is now named Southern Cross Way) and added a second access road, Moreton Drive, to Brisbane Airport. The deviation opened on 19 July 2009 whilst Moreton Drive opened on 3 December 2009. South of the bridges, the motorway was expanded to 9 lanes up to the Wynnum Road interchange, and 8 lanes to the Old Cleveland Road interchange. From that point the motorway is six lanes up to the Pacific Motorway Merge. The upgrades between Lytton Road and Mount Gravatt-Capalaba Road were completed on 28 January 2010, while the final stage between Mount Gravatt-Capalaba Road and Pacific Motorway (also the final stage of the entire Gateway Motorway Upgrade) was opened to traffic on 30 July 2011.

Manual toll booths were removed and replaced with electronic toll gates (which require vehicles to have a transponder attached to the windscreen) in 2010.

The motorway has three toll points, the Murarrie, Kuraby and Compton Road toll points.{{cite web|url=https://govianetwork.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/TollRoadNetworkMap.pdf|title=South-east Queensland toll road network|website=go via|date=September 2015|access-date=11 January 2021}} The Murarrie toll point is located immediate south of the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges and charges all vehicles travelling on the bridges. The Kuraby toll point is located north of Compton Road and charges vehicles between the Logan Road / Pacific Motorway and Compton Road / Logan Motorway. The nearby Compton Road toll point is located on the northbound exit and southbound entry ramps to/from Compton Road, which opened in 2019. The sections north of Brisbane Airport and between Port of Brisbane Motorway and Logan Road are toll-free.

The Murarrie toll point was introduced in 2005 to fund the duplication of the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges.{{cite web |url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2005/02/17/1305263.htm |title=New Gateway Bridge for Brisbane to begin next year |access-date=1 February 2010 |date=17 February 2005 |work=ABC News Online |publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation |archive-date=9 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210109085019/https://www.abc.net.au/news/2005-02-17/new-gateway-bridge-for-brisbane-to-begin-next-year/1520824 |url-status=dead }} At the time, the Murarrie tolls were proposed to expire in 2041.

In 2011, tolls on the Gateway (Kuraby toll point) and Logan Motorways were extended from 2018 to 2051, as well as the Murarrie tolls, as a result of the transfer of Queensland Motorways' tollways to the Queensland Investment Corporation (QIC).{{cite web|url=https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/logan-motorway-toll-to-be-charged-until-2051-not-2018-state-government-20161027-gsciiw.html|title=Logan Motorway toll to be charged until 2051, not 2018: State Government|publisher=Brisbane Times|date=27 October 2016|access-date=18 October 2021}}

Southern Cross Way is a {{convert|7|km|mi}}, 4 lane motorway which branches from the Gateway Motorway at Eagle Farm before merging back with it at Nudgee. Prior to 2010, Southern Cross Way formed part of the Gateway Motorway before the Gateway Upgrade Project constructed a shorter route (and additional Brisbane Airport access road, Moreton Drive), between those two suburbs. The old, longer motorway section was preserved, connected to the deviation and renamed Southern Cross Way, after the aircraft flown by aviator Charles Kingsford Smith, to allow motorists to distinguish between the routes. Southern Cross Way (also colloquially called the 'Old Gateway Motorway') thus follows the previous alignment of the Gateway Motorway between Eagle Farm and Nudgee and has three exits.AAP.
