The Sydney Metro is a rapid transit rail system in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The system is owned by the Government of New South Wales[1] and is operated under contract by Metro Trains Sydney, a joint venture between MTR Corporation, John Holland Group, and UGL Rail.[2] There are currently thirteen Sydney Metro stations open and 36 kilometres (22 mi) of track.[3] There are 46 metro stations and 113 kilometres (70 mi) of track planned or under construction.[4]

The first section of the Sydney Metro, Sydney Metro Northwest, opened on 26 May 2019 between Tallawong and Chatswood.[4] This consists of thirteen stations, five of which were existing stations along the Epping to Chatswood rail link converted to metro use, and nine of which were new stations.[3]

Sydney Metro City & Southwest is planned to open in two stages: the section between Chatswood and Sydenham via the central business district is planned to open in 2024, and the section between Sydenham and Bankstown, which consists of the Bankstown Line converted to metro use, is planned to open in 2025.[5][6] The Chatswood to Sydenham section has eight new metro stations[7] and the Sydenham to Bankstown section has eleven new metro stations.[8] Sydney Metro Western Sydney Airport, which will have six new metro stations,[9] is planned to open in 2026 upon the opening of the Western Sydney Airport.[6][10] Sydney Metro West is planned to open in 2032 and will have at least nine new stations, all of which will be underground.[11]

Sydney Metro stations are either elevated, underground, or in a cutting.[12] All stations will have platform screen doors[13] and level boarding.[12]
