Transport Access Program – Tranche 3 | Transport for NSW Urban Design (Public Transport & Precincts)

The Transport Access Program (TAP 3) is a 10–year, billion –dollar project of station precinct upgrades across NSW. Design managed by Transport for NSW’s Urban Design Team, the program goes beyond accessibility compliance to deliver bespoke, safe, pedestrian–friendly environments in complex urban neighbourhoods, regional towns, and heritage settings.

The TAP 3 program challenges traditional thinking, bringing an architectural and urban design–led process to one of the most heavily regulated sectors within the built environment. The program spans 54 station precincts across city, intercity and regional networks.

It has delivered valuable place benefits that could easily have been abandoned in favour of cost and compliance. Improved access comes hand in hand with urban heat mitigation, Aboriginal and heritage interpretation, intuitive way finding and reduced visual clutter. By championing strong contextual public domain principles from the beginning, these station upgrades move beyond standardisation and repetition to positively contribute to the communities they serve.
