Project Profile Central to Eveleigh Urban Renewal and Transport Program
The Central to Eveleigh Urban Renewal and Transport Program extends south from Goulburn Street in Sydney’s CBD to Macdonaldtown and Erskineville Stations.
AMBITION
The Central to Eveleigh Urban Renewal and Transport Program is about transforming the rail corridor from Central to Eveleigh, including Central and Redfern Stations, public open space and the Australian Technology Park.
A broader study area will include part of the adjacent suburbs of Surry Hills, Redfern, Waterloo Darlington, Chippendale and Ultimo.
Extending the Sydney CBD around Central and Redfern Stations will contribute to Sydney’s growth as a global city. The program will connect existing vibrant and diverse suburbs by integrating new commercial, retail, residential and educational development along with public domain and parkland in and around a revitalised public transport system.
