The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the tunnels between Chatswood to Sydenham was exhibited in May and June 2016. Over 300 submissions were received and responded to in the Submissions and Preferred Project Report submitted to the Department of Planning and Environment in October.
Project approval was received on 10 January, 2017 with early works now underway.
The first of five tunnel boring machines will be in the ground before the end of 2018 to deliver new 15.5-kilometre twin railway tunnels between the end of Sydney Metro Northwest at Chatswood and Sydenham.
New stations will be delivered at Crows Nest, Victoria Cross, Barangaroo, Martin Place, Pitt Street and Waterloo along with new underground platforms at Central Station.
We will be carrying out a community consultation where you can learn about the Sydney Metro city works, ask questions about the project and give your feedback. Please feel free to drop in at the following locations:
