Sydney Metro North West Line and Sydney Metro City & Southwest
Operations of the Metro North West Line in Sydney is run by Metro Trains Sydney Pty. Limited (MTS), a joint venture of MTR Corporation (60% shareholding), Australia’s John Holland Group (20%) and UGL Rail (20%), a division of United Group Limited.
MTR Corporation, as a shareholder and delivery partner in the Northwest Rapid Transit Consortium (NRT), participated in the delivery of the Metro North West Line under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) contract. The contract was extended in late 2019 to include new metro trains and core rail systems for the CBD extension (City & Southwest), as well as a combined operations and maintenance package up to 2034. MTS, a majority-owned subsidiary of the MTR Corporation, began operations in 2019 on the Sydney Metro North West Line, a 36 km railway system with 13 stations.
The 15.5km extension across Sydney Harbour commenced service in August 2024. Combined with the existing Metro North West Line currently in operation by MTS, the total length of the network has increased to 51.5 km. Simultaneously, the full line has been renamed as the "M1 Metro Northwest & Bankstown Line".
