State government announces new metro line running directly between Rosehill Racecourse and Crown Casino

TWO STOP SHOP: Transport NSW has today announced the latest extension of Sydney’s growing Metro network.

The state government has unveiled plans to construct a new 2.1 billion dollar metro line between Rosehill Racecourse and Crown Casino.

“It’s about urban connectivity,” says a government spokesperson. “And this is a vital public transport link,”

The new line, dubbed Lucky Line, is scheduled to open in 2027.

It is expected to increase attendance at the racecourse and casino by up to 12% in the first year.

“This is a cash grab,” says the opposition leader.

“The government benefits from increased taxes on gambling revenues.”

In response, the government spokesperson said:

“Every dollar raised helps to fund schools, hospitals, and future transport initiatives.”
