The proposed design of four stations and precincts along the Sydney Metro-Western Sydney Airport alignment have been revealed for community consultation.
The community is now invited to provide feedback on the designs for the St Marys Metro Station and Precinct, Orchard Hills Metro Station and Precinct, Luddenham Precinct, Bradfield Metro Station and Precinct, as well as active transport for the whole alignment.
The metro line plan has been developed in two stages, exhibition and consultation in 2023, and proposed design in 2024.
The proposed design is inspired by the qualities of the Cumberland Plain landscape to establish connection to place, people and communities of Western Sydney.
Major construction work on the Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport line started in late 2022, with the 9.8-kilometres of tunnelling for the project completed in June 2024.
Work is now underway to fit out the tunnels and build six new stations along the 23-kilometre alignment.

The new airport will connect passengers from the new Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport to Greater Sydney, including Bradfield city centre.
The Federal and New South Wales Governments have a shared objective of having Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport operational when the new Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport opens for passenger services.
Separately, Transport for NSW has released the Precinct, Luddenham Precinct, Bradfield Metro Station and Precinct for a new footbridge to connect the current St Marys Station with the future metro station, and landscaping for the northern entry on Harris Street.
The community can provide feedback on Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport Stage Two Place, Urban Design and Corridor Landscape Plan until Sunday 8 September.
