About the Transport Asset Manager of NSW (TAM)
TAM, established under the Transport Administration Act 1988, is the proud owner of railway network assets across NSW, including tracks, trains, stations and land holdings. TAM has owned the hard rock quarry at Bombo, which forms part of the Precinct, since 1947. Sydney Trains are the current operator of the quarry, producing ballast for use across the Sydney Trains rail network.
TAM is committed to delivering commercial, sustainable and socially responsible outcomes for the people of NSW, while enhancing the safety, connectivity and reliability of our transport systems.
Some of TAM’s other projects include:
Sydney Terminal Building Revitalisation
The Sydney Terminal Building Revitalisation project will rejuvenate Central Station’s Sydney Terminal Building, by improving customer experience and creating vibrant, activated and safe places for people.
The project is being delivered in stages, with the first stage including an upgrade of Eddy Avenue Plaza, Eddy Avenue Colonnade and the eastern terrace to improve public space, safety and connectivity.
Construction for stage 1 started in mid-2025
Community Heritage Program
The Community Heritage Program is a joint effort between TAM and Transport for NSW to restore and reactivate regional railway stations.
The goal is to turn underused spaces into places that offer new economic, cultural and social benefits for local communities. The program seeks to improve safety, public facilities and visual appeal, while bringing buildings up to modern standards.
TAM and Transport for NSW have restored stations at Blayney, Gunning, Katoomba and Bundanoon, as well as Berry residence and Hamilton signal box.
Regional Precinct Planning
We’re helping regional areas grow by planning new uses for old rail sites, like Broadmeadow and Glendale in Newcastle.
TAM is funding a master plan that establishes a vision for these regional sites to be reused for new precincts, and affordable and diverse housing.
