Project status

Planning is underway for an upgrade at Chester Hill Station. 

Transport has developed a concept design for Chester Hill Station and is seeking community and stakeholder feedback.

The project’s Review of Environmental Factors will be available for community feedback later this year.

What we have done so far

Before preparing the concept design for Chester Hill Station, we engaged with various groups including people with disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and women and girls from the local community.
 
These engagements have included Safer Cities Program workshops to understand women and girls perceptions of safety, and collaborative Connecting with Country events to understand the unique and enduring relationship between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and their ancestral lands, waters and natural resources. 

Transport will be engaging with the City of Canterbury Bankstown and continue discussions with stakeholders to seek feedback on the proposed concept design and precinct improvements.
