Rail Safety Week 2025

Rail Safety Week (RSW) is a rail industry initiative where operators in NSW come together to promote key rail safety messages. This year will the mark the eighteenth year for RSW and will run from 11-17 August 2025.

Within Transport for NSW Sydney Trains, NSW TrainLink, Sydney Metro and Sydney, Parramatta and Newcastle Light Rail will take part in this year’s multi-modal campaign.

The campaign will target all rail commuters, weekend travellers, regional travellers, and occasional users within local communities.

Rail Safety Week promotes situational awareness and deters distraction in the rail and light rail environment to our travelling customers.

Rail Safety Week is a reminder to all travellers to slow down, watch their step and be aware of their surrounds to avoid slips, trips and falls, also that there are broader safety measures to be considered, and to be responsible for their personal safety, and do their bit for a safer trip.
