{{main|Sydney Metro}}
The [[Sydney Metro]] is a [[Automatic train operation | driverless]] [[rapid transit]] network separate from the suburban rail network, with connections at major interchange stations. Currently, the network consists of a single line extending from [[Tallawong]] in the north-west to the city and [[Sydenham, New South Wales | Sydenham]]. This line, designated as the M1, will be extended to Bankstown in 2025 with suburbs previously on the [[Bankstown railway line]] currently closed for conversion to the metro. A new line through the inner west to Parramatta is planned to be built by 2030.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/transport-minister-andrew-constance-says-new-sydney-metro-train-line-a-massive-city-shaping-project-20150616-ghoy0v.html |title=Transport minister Andrew Constance says new Sydney Metro train line a 'massive city shaping project' |work=The Sydney Morning Herald |date=16 June 2015 |access-date=20 June 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/north-shore/new-metro-train-stations-in-sydney-could-be-built-in-crows-nest-or-st-leonards-and-artarmon-by-2024/story-fngr8h9d-1227392848894 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20150921142445/http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/north-shore/new-metro-train-stations-in-sydney-could-be-built-in-crows-nest-or-st-leonards-and-artarmon-by-2024/story-fngr8h9d-1227392848894 |url-status=dead |archive-date=21 September 2015 |title=New metro train stations in Sydney could be built in Crows Nest or St Leonards and Artarmon by 2024 |work=The Daily Telegraph |date=11 June 2015 |access-date=20 June 2015 }}</ref> It currently serves 21 stations. A line to serve the greater west is planned for 2026 and will include a station for the [[Western Sydney Airport|second international airport]].
