Light Rail

The Sydney Light Rail network currently consists of three passenger routes, the L1 Dulwich Hill, L2 Randwick and L3 Kingsford lines. A separate light rail network serving Western Sydney called Parramatta Light Rail is also under construction as of 2020, and is scheduled for completion in 2023. The network is controlled by Transport for NSW, with day-to-day operation contracted to Transdev.
