Hunter Street Station in New South Wales will have two underground pedestrian connections to link commuters directly to services on the M1 metro line at Martin Place.
A pedestrian connection will join Hunter Street Station to Wynyard Station at the station’s western end, while at its eastern end, a multi-level walkway will allow passengers to travel from the Hunter Street platforms on Metro West directly to the platform level at Martin Place Metro Station on the M1 Line.
The route will join Barangaroo, through Wynyard Walk, to transport hubs at Wynyard, Hunter Street, and both metro and Sydney Trains services at Martin Place.

Expected to have the busiest platforms on the Metro West line, Hunter Street Station will serve as a major gateway to the west, connecting passengers to Greater Parramatta in around 20 minutes.
Sydney Metro West is targeting an opening date of 2032.
