This Project is one part of the wider Sydney Metro Project; Sydney Metro is Australia’s biggest public transport project. This new Metro will deliver 31 metro stations and more than 66 kilometres of new metro rail which intends to increase the capacity of Sydney’s passenger rail system by 60% by 2024.
The Sydney Metro City & Southwest project is the second stage of the Sydney Metro program, extending from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour, through the central business district (CBD) and beyond to Bankstown. It includes seven new metro stations and the upgrade of all eleven existing stations between Sydenham and Bankstown. The Bankstown and Additional Corridor Works project forms a subsection of the second stage of the Sydney Metro program which will convert the Bankstown Station to metro standards.
