Restore Inner West Line: Liverpool via Regents Park • Restore Inner West Line: Liverpool via Regents Park

T3 Liverpool and Inner West Line
(City Circle to Liverpool via Regents Park)

Our Train Services Restored on 30 September 2024
Thanks for supporting our Community Campaign since 2013

The 2024 timetable is a missed opportunity to provide Granville and Lidcombe with T1 Western Line express services especially during the peak.

Join our community campaign for fast trains at Granville and Lidcombe:

Restore T1 Western Line (express trains) for Granville and Lidcombe (removed in 2017) through implementation of the “Schofields Plan”.
Introduce Pippita CityExpress (and restore regular Olympic Park to Central services)
Extend T6 Bankstown & Lidcombe Line to City Circle via Inner West (restore Bankstown to City Circle via Regents Park)
Fast Track the Digital Systems Program (DSP) signalling upgrades for T1 Western Line, T2 Leppington Line, T3 Liverpool and Inner West Line, T5 Cumberland Line, and T6 Bankstown Line

Read our Submission calling for Rail Planning West of Bankstown in support of the full restoration of the Inner West Line (both City to Liverpool via Regents Park and City to Bankstown via Regents Park) – Option 2 and 3. The 2024 Sydney Trains timetable also has capacity for Bankstown to City Circle via Regents Park but Transport for NSW refuses to run the direct train (T6 Line) beyond Lidcombe. Learn more about the available capacity to restore Bankstown to City via Regents Park on the Inner West Line.

City to Liverpool via Regents Park

The Inner West Line (Liverpool via Regents Park route removed in 2013) provides fastest access to City Circle and Inner West without crowded interchanges at Birrong, Lidcombe, Strathfield.

City to Bankstown via Regents Park

Sydney Metro Southwest downgrades Sydenham to Bankstown and isolates the west of Bankstown forcing commuters from Birrong and Yagoona to interchange to reach the City Circle as the direct service on Inner West Line (Bankstown via Regents Park route) was removed in 2013.

Fast Trains for Lidcombe, Auburn, Granville

The 2017 timetable change extending the Inner West Line from Homebush (2013 terminus) to Parramatta resulted in the loss of express trains at Lidcombe, Auburn, Granville and hindered the capacity for the reinstatement of the City to Bankstown via Regents Park route.

South West Sydney Deserves Better

We are also campaigning for all stations from City to Liverpool via Regents Park to have accessibility upgrades and NightRide bus services. Chester Hill, Villawood, and Carramar needs lifts. Birrong, Yagoona, and Carramar needs NightRide. Liverpool should also have direct trains to Campbelltown.
