Barangaroo has no comparable project in
Australia. This is due to the scale of the project and its unique
combination of urban renewal, property development, creation of
cultural and entertainment areas, mixed use deployment, creation of
large scale passive and active recreational areas in a harbourside
CBD location. When completed, more than 23,000 people are expected
to live and work at Barangaroo, and another 33,000 people will
visit every day.
A project of this scale requires innovative
transport solutions.
Barangaroo will use the world's best practice
approach to sustainable transport. To reach our
sustainability targets, 96% of people will catch public transport,
cycle or walk to Barangaroo.
