Southwest Metro is opening on Friday 30 October 2026!
Exciting news for our community! The Minns Labor Government has announced that the Southwest Metro services will commence on Friday 30 October.
Thank you so much for your patience throughout the construction and conversion works. I look forward to seeing residents enjoy the benefits of this transformational transport project.
This marks a major milestone for residents in our community, who will soon benefit from faster, more frequent and fully accessible transport.
Once services begin, passengers will be able to access turn-up-to-go metro trains running every 4 minutes during peak periods, providing better connections to jobs, education, services and destinations across Sydney.

Major Upgrades Across the Corridor
Major upgrades across the Southwest Metro corridor are now complete, with the transformation of the 10 historic stations between Sydenham and Bankstown preparing the line for passenger services.
Works have included station accessibility upgrades, refurbished facilities, new passenger information systems and improvements to surrounding station precincts, while preserving important local heritage features.

The recent Campsie Metro Open Day gave the community an exciting first look at the new station, with hundreds of residents taking the opportunity to explore the platform and experience the transformation firsthand.
The day was a fantastic success, bringing people together in the new open-air plaza to enjoy food, entertainment and a vibrant community atmosphere. With the station opening drawing closer, it was great to see so much enthusiasm from local residents as they celebrated this major milestone for Campsie and the wider community.
