Summary
Three architecture studios - RSHP, Hassell, and WW+P Architects - have designed the five stations for Melbourne's Metro Tunnel rail network, which is set to open in February 2026. The stations are designed to provide enjoyable spaces for commuters and aim to ease congestion on Melbourne's City Loop underground infrastructure by connecting the Sunbury line in the west to the Cranbourne/Pakenham lines in the southeast.
