North Head visitor access improvements

What the project involves

North Head, located in Sydney Harbour National Park, features some of Sydney's newest and most spectacular lookouts, Burragula and Yiningma, as well as the popular heritage-listed Quarantine Station.

This project aims to:

• improve bus stops and pedestrian access
• improve public transport and pedestrian access to the Quarantine Station
• repair drainage and road infrastructure
• investigate the most appropriate pedestrian access to North Head and links to destinations.

We are currently in the initial planning stages of this project. We are conducting investigations and assessments (environmental, engineering, heritage, geotechnical) to inform the project.

Once investigations are complete, we will develop a proposal for community consultation. This proposal is expected to be available in mid-late 2025.
