Deep Dive: The design of Town Hall Station

Ғылым және технология

We’ve (obviously) spoken a lot about construction on here, but we felt it was time to shine a light on the design driving that work.
From building a square beneath City Square, to celebrating the landmarks of Melbourne around it, find out about the architectural design of Town Hall Station.

    Platform screen doors and a display showing how full each carriage is, nice.

    i went to japan this year it reminds me of japan except there railway network is huge a real eye opener after spending 12 days in japan we got use to their underground subways connecting corridors once this is completed in melbourne it will be good so i hope it doesnt end as melbourne is expanding.

    Will you be able to look out of the main entrance from the concourse to see the town hall? In the mock up it seemed like the sight line would be blocked by the roof! Think of the lovely view out to town hall from inside the station, and how much it’d help newcomers know where to go!

    I know. I live in Craigieburn. And there is no Logical Reason for Me to be in any of those Stations as they do not Feed the Craigieburn Line. But I swear to God I'm gonna Pay for a Ticket just to experience this Place !!!

    Will there be underground shops in the stations like you find at Melbourne Central station and Sydneys Wynard station/Town Hall stations.

    Hopefully it won't be a labyrinth like Sydney's town hall station

    Sydney's town hall station is fine.

    Town Hall Station in Sydney is Australia's largest and busiest underground railway station and was the epitome of what was available in 1932 when it opened. Three lines travel through this station across six platforms and far from being a labyrinth it is quite easy to get through. It's biggest enemy is the number of people that use it and this will be solved when Sydney Metro West is completed - which will provide a faster route from Sydney to Parramatta. One would think that Melbourne would get its own station names instead of copying Sydney's.

    Then the space above would be unusable. It's being returned to being a public space when finished.

    All the new stations in Melbourne are truly modernist horrors! Not architecture just dystopia!

    Very dissapointing to see all the plans dumbed down and made much less aesthetically pleasing since approval from various stakeholders, especially in the Campbell Arcade
