Victoria Cross metro station is a new station on the M1 Metro Northwest & Bankstown line line of the Sydney Metro network in Sydney, Australia. It serves the suburb of North Sydney. The station is located on Miller Street, near major office precincts in the area.
History[]
A station at Victoria Cross was proposed in 2001 as part of Co-ordinator General of Rail Ron Christie's Strategic Plan for Rail, as a stop for trains travelling to the north-west, Northern Beaches, Cronulla and Macarthur. The new station – a block away from the existing station in Blue Street – was designed to take pressure off the constrained interchange, which dates from 1932. The NSW Government incorporated many of Christie's ideas in its Metropolitan Rail Expansion Program (MREP) in 2005, including Victoria Cross station as part of a future Redfern to Chatswood railway line. When the MREP was cancelled in 2008, the idea of a station at Victoria Cross was dropped as well.
The concept of a Redfern to Chatswood line was partially revived by the NSW Government as part of the Sydney's Rail Future plan in 2012, this time as a metro stop. A detailed concept plan, including a station at Victoria Cross, went on public exhibition in 2015. The station entrance will be on the eastern side of Miller Street between Berry and Mount Streets.
In June 2017 changes were announced including an additional station entrance on McLaren Street. The second entrance is notable for being the first lift-only entrance to a passenger train station in Australia, and consists of 4 lifts capable of carrying 27 people each.
Configuration[]
Victoria Cross is fully underground station, located 31m below street level.
The station is on Miller Street at North Sydney, and will be close to local bus stops. There is also planned proposal for a direct walkway to Sydney Trains' North Sydney station.
The station started construction in 2017, and commenced service in 2024. Platforms are constructed in an island configuration.
