Friends in Sydney remember to make travel arrangements!
Commuters on the Epping to Chatswood train pay attention! From Sept. 30, the line will be suspended for the next seven months, with more than 20,000 passengers expected to be affected.
It is understood that the move is to give the Sydney Metro Northwest Link Project (Sydney Metro Northwest rail
Link) make way. During train service outages, more than 110 bus services will be arranged between the two places per hour to transport travellers, with an additional seven routes covered. It is understood that commuter travel time will be increased by at least 10 minutes.
Andrew Constance, the director of transport and infrastructure in New York, said the upgrade was part of a more than 20 billion Australian dollar subway project from Rouse Hill to Chatswood in the northwest of Sydney, which will provide four times as many services during peak hours as existing services.

In addition, the line from Rouse Hill to Chatswood in the northwest will also be upgraded, including the construction of glass screens and electrical equipment on the platform, which is expected to be completed by mid-2019. At the same time, since 200 years of operation, the existing 13-kilometer heavy rail line will also be reconstructed to allow single-storey subway operation.
It is understood that Macquarie Park Station (Macquarie Park), Macquarie University Station (Macquarie University) and North Ryder Station (North Ryde) and other major stations will be affected by the railway shutdown. Ryder district (Ryde) councillor Victor Dominello said Macquarie University teachers and students will have access to a dedicated "platform chain service" (Station Link service), will then open a dedicated line from Epping station to the university entrance.
In addition, some large businesses in North Sydney had previously expressed concern about the suspension of train services. Australia`s (Optus), one of the big companies operating Macquarie Park, has said it hopes to set the closure period at the end of November, when traffic to and from Macquarie University will drop.
