Metro services are now running between Chatswood and Sydenham with the first stage of Sydney Metro City & Southwest now open to the public.
Commuting between the north-west, lower north shore, Sydney city, North Sydney, and parts of South Sydney and the Inner West is now easier, faster and more reliable.
You can catch turn-up-and-go metro services to or from any of the 21 stations between Tallawong in Sydney’s Northwest and Sydenham in the Inner West – including key employment districts like Sydney city (four new stations) and North Sydney, Chatswood, Macquarie Park and Waterloo. Some examples of indicative travel times between key locations are:
- Castle Hill to Martin Place in 35 mins
- Epping to Victoria Cross (North Sydney) in 21 mins
- Sydenham to Chatswood in 22 mins
- Central to Macquarie Park in 24 mins
You can find out how long your future Metro trip will take using the - travel calculator.
The final stage of the City & Southwest project involves converting the existing T3 Bankstown train line to metro standards so services can run from Tallawong in Sydney’s northwest all the way to Bankstown via the CBD every four minutes during the peak from 2025.
This means that commuters from the southwest of Sydney will be able to enjoy the same benefits. You can find out how long your future Metro trip from the southwest will take using the travel calculator also.
