The final proposal revealed had the CBD Metro running from Rozelle to Central station, connecting with the proposed West Metro at Central station. The new metro stations would have provided connections with existing CityRail network at Wynyard, Martin Place, Town Hall, and Central stations.
The proposed route would have included 6 new metro stations:
- Rozelle- This station was to be located near Darling Street at Victoria Road, and was controversial within the local community.
- Pyrmont- This station was to be located in the Union Square area with a number of heritage buildings to be demolished.
- Barangaroo-Wynyard- This station was proposed to serve the Barangaroo development area with connections to the Wynyard Cityrail station.
- Martin Place
- Town Hall Square
- Central

Famous quotes containing the words proposed and/or route:
“To coöperate in the highest as well as the lowest sense, means to get our living together. I heard it proposed lately that two young men should travel together over the world, the one without money, earning his means as he went, before the mast and behind the plow, the other carrying a bill of exchange in his pocket. It was easy to see that they could not long be companions or coöperate, since one would not operate at all. They would part at the first interesting crisis in their adventures.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
