The much-anticipated Sydney Metro City line is now open!

This is a major milestone for Sydney Metro and it represents the most transformational change to the city since the opening of the Harbour Bridge in 1932. In fact, Sydney Metro is Australia’s largest infrastructure project to date. John McAslan + Partners designed Waterloo Station and collaborated with Woods Bagot on the Sydney Metro Central upgrade, both on the Sydney Metro City line. 

The practice’s transformation at the historic Sydney Central Station is expected to receive nearly half-a-million travellers per day. Waterloo Station is now serving one of Australia’s fastest growing neighbourhoods. Both stations are representative of an approach to transport architecture that seeks to emphasise clarity and calm with a unifying vision focussed on elevating the day-to-day passenger experience.
