Martin Place railway station is a station on the CityRail Eastern Suburbs railway line, located under Martin Place in the CBD of the city of Sydney, Australia. The station opened in 1979 with the opening of the Eastern Suburbs railway line. It consists of an underground island platform and a turnback siding with an underground concourse between the platform and street level. Escalators connect the concourse with the platforms. In 2010, work commenced on an Easy Access upgrade to the station, consisting of two lifts and an accessible toilet. [1] The upgrade was completed in time for the influx of commuters expected for ANZAC day commemorations on the 25th April.[2] Annual ridership to/from Martin Place railway station is 5.5 million journeys.[2]
