After many years of community campaigning for Redfern station to be made accessible, Transport for NSW finally released it’s plan in November 2019 to provide an accessibility upgrade to Redfern Station. This plan involves building a new concourse and six lifts accessing Platforms 1-10 with entrances on Little Eveleigh Street and Marian Street but no access to Platforms 11-12 at this stage. The plan can be seen here. This plan was not supported by the local community and community groups for a range of reasons including impacts on local streets, resident amenity and pedestrian and cyclist safety due to the location of the new railway concourse as well as lack of connectivity within the precinct.
