L1 Dulwich Hill Line weekend full closure due to maintenance

Eastern Harbour City

L1 Dulwich Hill Line passengers are urged to plan ahead this weekend with light rail services not running on the line from Saturday 18 to Sunday 19 November, daily from 6am to 11pm, due to planned trackwork and maintenance works.

During this time, alternative transport options will be available including: 

  • Replacement bus services between Central Grand Concourse and Dulwich Hill,
  • Train services and regular bus services, in areas where applicable.
  • If possible, walking is an alternative transport option for travel between Central Station, Darling Harbour, and Pyrmont due to increased road traffic.

Normal L2 Randwick Line and L3 Kingsford Line light rail services will continue to run.
Allow extra travel time and use the Trip Planner or check travel alerts to see if your travel is affected. 

Normal L1 light rail services between Central Grand Concourse and Dulwich Hill will resume from 6am Monday 20 November.

Replacement bus services: 

L1 replacement bus services will run daily from 6am to 11pm as follows:

  • From 6am to 7am: every 15 to 20 min,
  • From 7am to 7pm: every 10 to 15 min,
  • From 7pm to 11pm: every 15 to 20 min.

These times may vary depending on road traffic.

You must tap on and tap off when boarding and alighting replacement buses. Opal readers are located onboard all replacement buses. A standard light rail fare applies.

Important:

  • Due to long-term roadworks and associated road redirections in the Arlington area for the Inner West Council’s GreenWay project, Dulwich Grove and Arlington replacement bus stops have changed locations until further notice. See L1 replacement bus stop locations.
  • Replacement buses will divert between Rozelle Bay and Lilyfield replacement bus stops due to unavoidable road closures for WestConnex roadworks; it will extend your replacement bus journey time considerably.
  • Replacement buses will not stop at the following locations:
    • Capitol Square (towards Central and Dulwich Hill) - Please use the alternative stop at Central Grand Concourse or walk to Central Station (approx. 7 minute walk),
    • Exhibition Centre (towards Dulwich Hill) - Please use the alternative stop at Convention (approx. 7 minute walk),
    • Pyrmont Bay (towards Central and Dulwich Hill) - Please use the alternative stop at The Star (approx. 5 minute walk).

Most replacement buses will be accessible; if not, wait for the next service.
