File:Sydney Metro Sydenham Station upgrade (January 2020 update)

Description
Five massive roof canopies have been installed at Sydenham Station in a major construction operation.

The canopies, each weighing more than 20 tonnes, are part of a new pedestrian concourse that will transform the station, which is being upgraded as part of Sydney Metro – Australia's biggest public transport project.

More than 400 people worked 24-7 over two weeks to deliver the work.

The new pedestrian concourse will connect the two new plaza entrances to the station on Railway Parade and Burrows Avenue.

A 500 tonne crane installed the roof canopies, which were built during a road closure on Burrows Ave as they were too large to be transported by truck.

Platforms 1 and 2 are now closed so they can be upgraded to Sydney Metro platforms, including the installation of platform screen door technology.

Customers on the T3 Bankstown Line will use platforms 3 and 4 at Sydenham until Sydney Metro opens in 2024.
