Background

The average number of weekly bus trips across the South East has grown by 130,000 from March 2016 to the same month in 2019.

The new light rail has changed how customers in the South East travel into and out of the CBD, providing modern, turn-up-and-go services.

Transport for NSW has developed an integrated network plan for Sydney’s South East to provide much needed capacity for customers as well as to support existing and emerging travel patterns.
