Locations of stations confirmed for Sydney Metro
The first tunnel boring machine will be in the ground before the end of 2018 for Stage 2 of Sydney Metro.
Stage 2 of Sydney Metro will involve twin tunnels running the entire 15 kilometres from Chatswood to Sydenham. Proposed new stations will be at:
- Crows Nest – located on the western fringe of Crows Nest village.
- Victoria Cross located in the northern section of North Sydney’s CBD.
- Barangaroo Central.
- Martin Place will be integrated with the existing suburban station underground between Castlereagh and Elizabeth streets.
- Pitt Street metro station will be located below Pitt and Castlereagh streets and north of Park street.
- An underground station at Central linking to existing intercity and suburban rail services.
Investigations will begin into potentially extending metro rail from Bankstown to Liverpool. Ongoing investigations are continuing into a proposed metro station at either Waterloo of Sydney University.
The Property Council has long advocated for a second harbour rail crossing and welcomes the plans to bring Sydney Metro to fruition.
Sydney Metro will help boost capacity of the rail network by 100,000 people every hour and move more people across the Harbour in the busiest hour of the peak than the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Harbour Tunnel combined.
Stage 1 of Sydney Metro – the $8.3 billion Sydney Metro Northwest – is more than half-complete and due to start passenger services in 2019 with Sydney Metro City & Southwest expected to open in 2024.
