Redfern Station Upgrade - New Southern Concourse
Project overview
The NSW Government is improving accessibility at Redfern Station as part of the Transport Access Program. The project aims to provide a station precinct that is accessible to those with a disability, limited mobility, parents/carers with prams and customers with luggage. Upgrading Redfern Station will make it easier for all customers to access, as well as improving connections between the station and key destinations in the area. The upgrade includes a new concourse at the southern end of the station.
Key benefits
- easy access to platforms 1 to 10 with six new stairs and lifts
- better connectivity with the surrounding areas including key destinations such as South Eveleigh (formerly known as Australian Technology Park), and education centres
Upgrading Redfern Station is the first step in renewing the Redfern North Eveleigh precinct.
