About MILTON

Milton is an inner suburb of Brisbane, Australia, located approximately two kilometres west of Brisbane's central business district. The suburb is a mixture of light industry, warehouses, commercial offices, retail and single and multiple occupancy residences. The main roads are Milton Road, which runs beside the main western rail line and Coronation Drive (formerly River Road), which runs along the Brisbane River.

Notable landmarks in Milton include the Castlemaine Perkins brewery, known for the Four X (XXXX) range of beers, the Suncorp Stadium (formerly Lang Park), and the Park Road strip of trendy restaurants and cafés. The suburb also once was the site of Brisbane's major tennis courts where major international and national tournaments were held until the courts closed in the 1990s. As of 2006, a small ten-pin bowling alley is located at the Rosalie end of the suburb.

Between 1900 and 1962, Milton was served by trams running along Milton Road from Toowong and Rainworth, with the latter branching off at Baroona Road. The services were withdrawn after the disastrous Paddington tram depot fire and replaced by buses. The suburb continues to be served by most western suburb bus routes operated by Brisbane Transport.

Between 1927 and 1969, the Brisbane City Council's tramway workshops were located at Boomerang Street, a site formerly used as a nightsoil dump. Trams accessed the workshops from Milton Road, under the railway line.

The Brisbane City Council's trolley-bus depot and garage was located between Chippendale and Castlemaine Streets and operated between 1951 and 1969. The building remained until it was demolished to make way for the redevelopment of Suncorp Stadium.
