“We are already delivering Stages 1 and 2 of Sydney Metro – 66 kilometres of new metro rail opening from 2019 that will change the face of the north west and take pressure off Town Hall and Wynyard in the CBD, with a new crossing of Sydney Harbour and metro to Bankstown.

“Customers won’t need a timetable on this 21st century turn up and go metro system, which will deliver new capacity and more services for generations to come. “This new rail line will be able to move about 40,000 people an hour in each direction, delivering a massive boost to public transport. “It will also mean faster and more frequent services will be able to be delivered on the Sydney Trains network from other major centres like Penrith and Blacktown.”
