Don't put all your eggs in one basket - plan your journey on public transport this Easter long weekend.

TransLink CEO Neil Scales said TransLink operators across South East Queensland would have changed levels of services over the four-day Easter break.

"Customers planning to catch public transport this Easter should familiarise themselves with bus, train and ferry timetables operating from Good Friday (6 April) to Easter Monday (9 April)," Mr Scales said.

"Our operators, including Queensland Rail, will run a Sunday timetable on Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Monday, with regular Saturday timetables on Easter Saturday.

"NightLink buses and trains will not run early Saturday morning (7 April) but will operate early Sunday morning (8 April)."

Ferny Grove line train customers should also be aware of a track closure on the Easter long weekend.

Mr Scales said buses would replace trains between Michelton and Ferny Grove stations from 8pm Thursday night (5 April) to the last services on Monday night (9 April).

"Customers should expect delays of 30 minutes while works on the duplication of tracks between Keperra and Ferny Grove stations continues," Mr Scales said.

"Customers with a disability can call 3606 5555 or SMS 0428 774 636 for assistance.
