Stage 1 will have 16 stops across Carlingford, Camellia, Parramatta CBD, Parramatta North and Westmead. Stage 2 will have 14 stops across Rydalmere, Ermington, Melrose Park, Wentworth Point, Sydney Olympic Park, and Carter Street.
From the left-hand of the map, Stage 1 extends from the west to the north-east starting at Westmead heading north-east up Hawkesbury Road, and then proceeds further east to Factory Street. From there Stage 1 goes south down Church Street, and then heads east again down Macquarie Street, then George Street, then Tramway Avenue then continues north-east all the way up to Carlingford where it concludes.
Stage 2 starts at the right-hand side of the map at Carter Street, and heads east down Dawn Fraser Avenue, then goes north up Australia Avenue. From there it heads east again down Hill Road, then north again to cross the Parramatta River and down Waratah Street. Then it continues west down Boronia Street, then South Street, and then south-west where there are 2 different routes, one being the preferred route that goes down from South Street, crosses the Parramatta River, then west down Grand Avenue.
The second is an alternative route under consideration for Stage 2 that instead goes west shortly after South Street, and crosses the Parramatta River then meets Grand Avenue. Further down Grand Avenue there is a stabling and maintenance facility on the south side of the route, which then continues to Camellia where it meets Stage 1.
From here it continues north-west down Tramway Avenue to the first interchange stop, then down George Street to another interchange stop, then down Macquarie Street to the last interchange stop, which is the final part of the preferred route for Stage 2. A small section that continues north-west off this is a turnback option that is under consideration.
