The NSW Government has officially named the new Sydney Metro station at the southern end of the Sydney CBD Gadigal Railway Station. The station name acknowledges the Gadigal people, the original custodians of the land around Sydney’s CBD.
The station, formerly known as Pitt Street Station, is being delivered by CPB Contractors as part of the ongoing Sydney Metro Integrated Station Development project.
The project includes the delivery of a 250-metre-long underground station that stretches beneath Pitt Street, connecting Park Street to Bathurst Street, nestled between Pitt and Castlereagh streets. Additionally, it includes the construction of integrated connections between the two station entrances with retail and other commercial facilities.
Engagement with key Aboriginal stakeholders and communities, including the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council, resulted in overwhelming support for Gadigal as the new station name.
Wayfinding, such as maps and signage at all stations and on every metro train, will include station names across the alignment to assist passengers in navigating their trip.
