Sydney Metro Northwest will link the University to beyond Rouse Hill in the North West and to Chatswood on the North Shore where commuters will interchange for services to the City until the next stage of Sydney Metro (currently under construction) is completed.

Students, staff and visitors will be able to access the University on this new service that will operate every four minutes.

Prior to the completion of Sydney Metro Northwest, the Epping to Chatswood Line will close and be upgraded to integrate with the new line. The closure is expected to take six months.

An announcement on the date of the closure is expected shortly. The University has been working with Transport for NSW in planning for the closure and ensuring that new bus services are introduced to allow students, staff and visitors to access the University with minimal disruption.

In line with the announcement, a Project Team has been established and is working with representatives across the University.

Information about the closure can be found here.
