Barangaroo Station

Main station features

The station improves access to the Walsh Bay Arts and Culture precinct as well as providing easy access to the development’s public, residential, commercial and entertainment areas and the new ferry hub. It services the residential areas at Millers Point, Walsh Bay and future residents of Barangaroo, providing high quality public transport access to the latest destination in Sydney.

It also improves pedestrian connections to the northern part of the Sydney CBD and The Rocks, and alleviates congestion at Wynyard and Martin Place stations.

The station includes:

• new bike parking within the precinct
• new configuration of bus stops close to the station entry
• new kiss and ride and taxi facilities
• wayfinding signage and Sydney Metro information within the precinct
• transport and access arrangements which are being developed in consultation with Infrastructure NSW.

Location

The station is located beneath the northern end of Hickson Road, south of Munn Street in Millers Point.

Access and entry

Access and entry are via Central Barangaroo and Barangaroo Reserve.

Planning and compliance

The Chatswood to Sydenham Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) covers the construction and operation of the Sydney Metro rail line from Chatswood to Sydenham.

The EIS was on public exhibition from 11 May to 27 June 2016 and received more than 300 submissions. The Minister for Planning approved the Chatswood to Sydenham EIS on 9 January 2017.

A Station Design and Precinct Plan (SDPP) has been prepared for Barangaroo Station that shows how the new station design has developed and how it will integrate with the surrounding precinct. The SDPP outlines the urban, landscaping and architectural design for Barangaroo Station.

BESIX Watpac is delivering the contract to build the new Barangaroo Station, which includes the station fit out, a station entrance next to Nawi Cove and upgrading Hickson Road. At Nawi Cove and along Hickson Road there will be new footpaths, trees, lighting, bike parking and street furniture, as well as a new separated cycle link.
