Historic community walk deep in Metro West tunnels

More than 1200 members of the public will experience the first ever underground station-to-station walk today, giving them a close up look at Metro West, Sydney’s next transformative public transport project.

Between the completion of tunnelling works and the commencement of tunnel fit out, this is a rare window of opportunity to explore the depths of the underground rail line that will reshape transport and housing in Sydney.

Descending by lift into the Bays West station box, the public will enter the 7-metre-high tunnels and walk within 25 metres of the Anzac Bridge footings, beneath Johnstons Bay, reaching the deepest point of 45 metres underground as it approaches the station box at Pyrmont.
