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.

Famous quotes containing the words proposed and/or route:
“I have always been, am, and propose to remain a mere scholar. All that I have ever proposed to myself is to say, this and this I have learned; thus and thus have I learned it; go thou and learn better; but do not thrust on my shoulders the responsibility for your own laziness if you elect to take, on my authority, conclusions the value of which you ought to have tested for yourself.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
