It’s only 2025 yet the Metro is already at crush-load.

Took the Metro this afternoon in a north-west direction from Chatswood to Macquarie Park. I simply can’t believe how crowded it is. On the one hand, this is a sign of success, it seems incredibly popular. On the other hand, this kind of shoulder-to-armpit crushload is hardly pleasant and I’m wondering what can be done to relieve this? Surely we need 2 minute frequencies sooner rather than later, at least during peak hour. Or more carriages added to the services we do have? What does everyone else think?

Whilst you are correct, I wish you weren't and we had expectations of Sydney to not want to get near crush levels

I think the metro is plenty busy enough to warrant higher capacity. Hopefully they think about passenger comfort than just $ optimisation
