The Sydney Metro City & Southwest project will see a new 30-kilometre metro line extending from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour, through new CBD stations and southwest to Bankstown.
The City & Southwest line will see new stations constructed at Crows Nest, Victoria Cross, Pitt Street, Martin Place and Waterloo. The stations will be delivered as integrated station developments (ISD), allowing for over-station developments.
The Victoria Cross ISD, on the corner of Miller and Berry Streets, North Sydney, is proposed to comprise a 40-storey commercial building over a metro station which will sit approximately 31 metres below ground.
The Victoria Cross ISD will include:
- two station entrances including a northern entrance opening to Miller and McLaren streets, and a southern entrance with pedestrian access to Miller and Denison streets
- a commercial building above the station’s southern entrance
- station concourse and platforms beneath Miller Street
- a commercial and retail hub, and
- upgraded pedestrian infrastructure around the station, including new bike parking at the northern entrance, and new kiss and ride bays on McLaren Street opposite the northern entrance.
