Gabba in box seat as Olympic upgrade could lift capacity to 50,000
She said having a main stadium two kilometres from the CBD would give Queensland an advantage other Games hosts had not had.
Brisbane is in the box seat to host the 2032 Games after the International Olympic Committee named south-east Queensland as its preferred candidate last month.
Bid organisers have insisted they can host a cost-neutral Olympic Games, under a plan to use legacy facilities from the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games and Sydney 2000.
The state government had been considering building the main stadium at the Albion Park Raceway site, but decided to push ahead with Gabba.
More to come.
