CBD and South East Light Rail

Description
The CBD and South East Light Rail is a new light rail network for Sydney, with passenger services now operating on both the L2 Randwick Line and L3 Kingsford Line.

The 12km route features 19 stops, extending from Circular Quay along George Street to Central Station, through Surry Hills to Moore Park, then to Kensington and Kingsford via Anzac Parade and Randwick via Alison Road and High Street.

The stops are designed to service major transport hubs and create easy interchange points with buses, trains, ferries and the Inner West Light Rail.

Each light rail service can carry around 450 passengers, which is as many as up to nine standard buses.

With Sydney’s population set to increase by another million people over the next 10 years, transport capacity needs to grow and flex.

Sydney’s new CBD and South East Light Rail plays a key role in enabling the city’s transport future by transporting thousands of customers between the CBD and Randwick or Kingsford in the South Eastern suburbs.
