Sydney NorthWest Metro

Sydney NorthWest Metro

Sydney is one the major economic powerhouses of the world. In that regard, the city not having  a rapid transit system is a great calamity. The Sydney Metro Northwest, an under construction system aims to solve its problems. It aims to connect the northwestern suburbs of Sydney to the central business districts. 

It is considered to be Australia’s largest public transport infrastructure project under construction. It would be the first fully automated rapid rail transit system. It is expected to open in 2019.

“Sydney Metro will deliver this major economic boost by:

·      improving access to jobs

·      changing the way people move about the

·      city and reducing congestion

·      allowing people to travel from one key centre

·      to another in minutes

·      enabling housing and employment growth

·      along Sydney’s Global Economic Corridor

·      and west to Bankstown

·      encouraging greater commercial development and jobs – in key areas of the city and

North Sydney”. (Sydneymetro.info)
