Metro rail is the favoured mass-transit system of many of the world’s great cities.  Each metro system is individually designed to meet the needs of the city it serves.

Using Euro style metro trains, Sydney Link’s metro system will be tailored to the needs of our city and will revolutionise Sydney’s public transport system:

High frequency services will make timetables unnecessary. With a metro train every few minutes waiting times are kept to an absolute minimum.

* More doors means that passengers can get on and off faster, delays at stations are reduced and overall travel times are much quicker.

* Operating independently of other modes of transport, energy efficient metros will run predominantly on underground routes that will feature new, passenger friendly stations.

* Metros can add substantial capacity to existing transport modes, reducing traffic congestion and passenger crowding.

* Some metro lines around the world can reliably move more than 60,000 people in an hour, while CityRail lines are limited to a maximum of about 30,000 people per hour.
