Please see the attached three documents, which I've shared with a number of people and entities since project inception in 2015, including Sydney Metro / TfNSW.
- "Sydney Sustainable Housing & Integrated Transport Strategy" (Sydney SHITS!).
The first version of 190615 includes a discussion of a full train network operating plan.
The final version from my web page (currently shut down) includes updated ideas to make use of existing light rail and road infrastructure (especially WestConnex). It includes two place-markers for pictures near the end (before "What next?"), which are in the "poster" file of 25Aug2017. The web page text refers to a number of other attachments and links that I can provide on request.
Hopefully there are still some ideas in here that can be used.

I very much like the construction of more Metro lines, HOWEVER, the proposed positioning of stations makes no sense. There are no connections with heavy rail or other Metro trains. It seems that many stations are 200metres to 1 kilometre to other existing heavy rail stations. Furthermore this line directs commuters along a similar direction to existing heavy rail lines. Please reconsider these signicant issues. I suspect that you are basing these decisions on pork-barreling rather than helping citizens commute between Western Sydney and North/South Sydney. I believe that creating more cross connections between existing train lines will ease the congestion in the Sydney CBD and enable a more distributed Greater Metro Politan network. If you take Seoul metro network and Tokyo metro networks as examples, their systems enable millions of people to commute because they have good, efficent connections between lines. as an example, perhaps connecting Parramatta, Olympic Park, Strathfield, Belmore, Kingsgrove, Hurstville (then perhaps further connections on from there) would be a better way of improving the network.

Could you please consider areas which either (a) need new stations (i.e. Burwoo1d doesn't need a second station within 1km walk of the existing station) (b) ensure integration with existing heavy rail stations (think about customers with disability!) (c) consider how many more people would use the trains if better interconnections were made. (d) NOT build a parrallel line for rich, parramatta river view areas, but improve the living standards of other areas with no trains and poor buses

This is a vital infrastructure project that will benefit the residents of Pyrmont, and the broader Sydney community, greatly. Every effort should be made to expedite the approval and completion of this project as soon as possible. I wholeheartedly endorse it and cannot wait to use it.

Newington/Silverwater has very little public transport. Not adding a stop there would be a giant missed opportunity. Also, there should be a stop between the Bays Station and Five Dock Station
