WATERFRONT METRO STATION NOW OPEN

The Barangaroo Metro Station, part of the Sydney Metro scheme, the new underground transport network, is now open to the public. Sydneysiders can now start exploring the public space surrounding the station ahead of the metro opening date on the 4 August.

The Barangaroo Metro Station precinct has been given a makeover, including tree-lined footpaths, bike-parking facilities, concrete benches and a cast iron replica of the historic Barangaroo Boat.  

“The work that’s been done here doesn’t just deliver a brand new metro station, but also a functional and modern pedestrian precinct with new parkland for everyone to enjoy some of our harbour’s most stunning vantage points,” Transport Minister Jo Haylen has said.

Subject to approval by the Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator, successful completion of trial running exercises and system performance tests, all six stations on the City and Southwest metro line will start welcoming passengers this coming weekend.
