The ACT Government and Canberra Airport have backed moving Canberra Station 1km "further" from the City to a new location at the airport. The Government intends passengers to transfer there with the future light rail service to the City. In 2021 there were no fewer than 16 daily coach services between Canberra's CBD and Sydney Central, yet none between Canberra Airport and Sydney, bringing in to question the demand for a high-speed rail terminal at the airport. Should the airport be chosen as the new location, Canberra station would be 7km from the CBD, the furthest distance of any Australian capital other than Darwin.
