The railway platforms at Sydney airport were evacuated on Sunday in response to a police operation.
A spokesman for NSW police said the operation began about 12.30pm. In a statement on Twitter, police said the platforms of the international and domestic airport train stations have been evacuated “as a precaution”.
Two hours later police said the operation had “concluded”.
“A precautionary search was conducted, and no items were found,” NSW police said.
Trains on the airport line did not stop at five stations from Green Square to Wolli Creek while the police operation was underway.
“Passengers wishing to travel to these stations are advised to delay their trip until replacement buses are operating,” Transport NSW said. “Replacement buses will operate between Central and Turrella once on site.”
Trains resumed at 2.40pm, Transport NSW said.
The disruption did not affect flights.
“Passengers and visitors to the airport should seek alternative means of transport and allow extra travel time,” a spokesperson for Sydney airport said.
