Victoria Cross and Pitt Street stations have been chosen as locations to develop transport hubs, located in North Sydney and CBD, serving the future metro system. “These great new destinations will be integrated with their surrounding environments, moulded on what is happening on other world-class mass transit systems. Sydney Metro will make it faster and easier to get around the city – but it also delivers an opportunity to create world-class destinations that will shape the city’s future,” Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance said.
The planning process has started with integrated concept designs released for Victoria Cross and Pitt Street stations to deliver buildings that offer commercial, residential, community and retail opportunities.
Planning for integrated station design at Crows Nest will start next year. The new metro station at Martin Place will also be integrated into the area around it and the NSW Government is currently assessing an unsolicited proposal.
Sydney Metro services start in the first half of 2019 on the Sydney Metro Northwest project, with metro rail to be extended in 2024 under Sydney Harbour, through the CBD and beyond to Bankstown.
