The new Sydney Metro stations are part of a new metro rail line connecting the north shore to the CBD and Sydney’s inner west.
With six new and two altered stations and a second Sydney Harbour rail crossing, the project provides quality precincts, easy access, and convenient interchange. It provides new ways to move around the city, representing a transformative chapter in Sydney’s history that echoes the impact of the Sydney Harbour Bridge when it opened in 1932.
The Sydney Metro extension and new stations have been universally embraced by the public, with over 28 million trips since opening, and recognised by design professionals as enhancing the everyday life, not only of individuals, but of the city itself. The project exemplifies the outcomes possible when real needs are met, and political will and the requirements of complex stakeholders align through a commitment to world-class architecture, art and urban design.
Sydney Metro’s new city stations on the M1 Northwest & Bankstown Line has been overwhelmingly positive, with coverage celebrating architecture, unlike any previous Australian public transport project.
The power of public transport is its reach – every demographic has some contact with it. The success of this project is a megaphone for the role of architecture in successful city-making infrastructure. The ease with which people can access and move through stations onto the network is due to successful architectural planning. Multiply that by eight, combine it with world-class art, public domain, and integrated developments, and Sydney has a city-making project without precedent.
