The NSW Government is funding a new bus layover facility as part of the Bus Priority Infrastructure Program to improve the reliability and efficiency of bus services, while easing congestion for all road users.
Sydenham requires a bus layover area to cater to the growing number of buses services in this area. Prior to picking up passengers, buses currently park along Burrows Avenue which creates congestion and safety issues for pedestrians and drivers.

The NSW Government is funding a new bus layover facility as part of the Bus Priority Infrastructure Program to improve the reliability and efficiency of bus services, while easing congestion for all road users.
Sydenham requires a bus layover area to cater to the growing number of buses services in this area. Prior to picking up passengers, buses currently park along Burrows Avenue which creates congestion and safety issues for pedestrians and drivers.
Transport is proposing a bus layover area at the corner of Railway Road and Burrows Avenue. This would give drivers a place to park safely between services and improve bus travel times and service frequencies, increasing reliability for passengers.
The buses would enter from Railway Road and exit into Burrows Avenue at the proposed bus layover which would have:
six bus parking spaces
a dedicated drivers’ amenity block with a lunch room and toilets
a noise wall between residential properties and the layover facility
a separate pedestrian walkway to provide passengers a direct pathway to Sydenham Station
landscaping.
