From the TfNSW website below you can find consultation details. There is also a Redfern Station Upgrade Newsletter – May 2019 (PDF, 680.25 KB). The newsletter references the proposed redevelopment of the 10 hectare railway precinct around Redfern Station and North Eveligh and flags a new TfNSW Redfern and North Eveleigh Precinct Renewal page indicating that wider renew of the 10 hectare surrounding site is also on the move.
