Why? To allow the new trains to operate a distance of 36 kilometres between Rouse Hill and Chatswood, and then on to the city when Stage 2 opens in 2024.
What does this mean? From late 2018, buses will replace trains for around 7 months between Epping and Chatswood.
• 120 new buses, extra routes, and thousands of added bus services; • Extra bus stops, shelters and seats; • Temporary removal of on-street car parking to make way for extra bus parking.
