One of Arcadis’ main challenges in helping deliver the large-scale urban planning development of Central Station was to reimagine the historical Sydney precinct as an innovative and contemporary transport interchange that would also function as a vibrant urban gateway, bringing new economic opportunities to the heart of the city. Drawing on Arcadis’ global expertise, a sustainable and innovative stakeholder-led approach to urban design of the precinct would allow the character and heritage of this inner-city landmark to be retained while creating an exciting new CBD destination reinforcing Sydney’s reputation as a truly global city.

Due to the cultural and historical significance of the Central Station precinct, it was critical to engage industry stakeholders and the community at an early phase. Their feedback and insights were used as guides to progress the project. Overwhelmingly, stakeholders shared a common vision for the transport precinct to become an exciting destination where people can gather to enjoy this famed public location once again.
To ensure continued stakeholder collaboration, the Arcadis team devised an innovative approach to deliver design documentation by building a digital information hub called the ‘Central Hub’ accessible by the entire project team. Information can be presented in a visual and engaging way through the Central Hub, making it easier for the community, industry stakeholders and government to understand each step of the process and ensure ongoing collaboration.
The impact
The regeneration of this landmark will create a new sense of place anchored by a revitalized economic and transport hub for people living, working and visiting Sydney’s CBD.
The Central Precinct renewal project focused on successful revitalization of the surrounding urban neighborhood using new public spaces as a key driver of urban regeneration.
