Kiama


Transport for NSW acknowledges the Dharawal people as the traditional custodians of the Illawarra and pay our respect to Elders past and present.

What are we doing at Kiama Station?

As part of the More Trains, More Services program we are delivering platform extensions and asset upgrades to a number of stations along the T4 Illawarra Line. This work will simplify and modernise the rail network, ultimately supporting the Introduction of the Mariyung fleet.

Over the coming months we will be completing asset upgrades and embankment stabilisation work inside the rail corridor between Kiama Smash Repairs and Kiama Station.

For more information please visit our Mariyung Fleet page.

Work we have completed at Kiama:

  • extending both ends of Platforms 1 and 2 by about eight metres to accommodate the longer fleet of intercity trains and provide access for customers to all carriages of the train
  • relocating the platform fences, stairs and gates to the end of the newly extended platforms
  • realigning and installing new overhead wiring and signalling equipment so that the new trains can operate safely and efficiently
  • improving safety on the platforms by upgrading lighting, closed circuit television, the passenger announcement systems, tactile paving and line marking as required by the platform extension.

Ongoing work in this area

We are also completing work south of Kiama Station to support the delivery of additional rail infrastructure. The work includes:

  • delivery of new track infrastructure:
  1. a 20 metre extension of the Kiama Siding, a low-speed section of track required for trains to turn around and travel back towards the city
  2. installation of a buffer stop for safety purposes
  • civil works such as excavation, construction of a retaining wall for the siding extension, and installation of a boundary fence
  • extension of the drivers’ walkway and additional walkway lighting
  • installation of additional signalling infrastructure.

Please visit the Documents section for up-to-date information about this work.
