Devonshire Street Tunnel, Underground pedestrian tunnel in the Sydney central business district, Australia

The Devonshire Street Tunnel is a 300-metre pedestrian passage beneath Central station, running from a head house on Chalmers Street west to a portal behind 841 George Street. Its walls are clad in glossy green tiles with a diamond pattern and large printed panels, including murals of trains; the flat ceiling holds rows of fluorescent lights above a tiled floor with a tan central band.

The Devonshire Street Tunnel opened in 1906 as a pedestrian continuation of Devonshire Street, cutting through the former Devonshire Street Cemetery beneath the southern end of Central station. In the early 1970s it was refurbished with terrazzo panels and fluorescent lights and extended 80 metres west under Railway Square. In 1985 murals of trains and railway infrastructure were painted on its walls.

In 1985 murals of trains and railway infrastructure were painted on the tunnel walls. They sit among glossy green tiles laid in a diamond pattern, and one panel shows a red and white train. The tunnel also carries a second life as a music venue, where buskers play beneath the fluorescent lights.

The tunnel has several entry points, including stairs and escalators near the Central Station area and an entrance through Henry Deane Plaza. At the eastern end, a small head house leads down into the passage, where you can also choose to enter the train station directly.

Before the tunnel was built, the land it cuts through was part of an old cemetery that was cleared to make way for the city's expansion. The western exit connects to The Goods Line, a converted outdoor path that leads to Darling Harbour without crossing any major roads.
