The Goods Line

The Goods Line is an 800 m-long (2,625 ft) linear park and shared pedestrian pathway and cycleway in the suburb of Ultimo, in the City of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

The Goods Line terminates in the north at the corner of Sussex and Hay Streets, in the Sydney central business district.

The extension tunnel then continues under the TAFE Marcus Clark Building and opens behind the Wembley House at 841 George Street.

The walkway exits the rail corridor near the Powerhouse Museum, crosses Darling Drive and terminates at the corner of Sussex and Hay Streets.

In the following years, the Lilyfield – Sydney Yard section became disused and with the Inner West Light Rail that opened between Pyrmont and Central station in 1997 using part of its alignment.

The section of the former goods line corridor from the northern end of the Devonshire Street Tunnel to Ultimo Road was converted into a pedestrian pathway and was originally called the Ultimo Pedestrian Network until it was renamed The Goods Line in 2012.
