Current record value
The walkway was originally constructed by the Sydney Botanic Gardens Trust as a futuristic urban convenience underneath The Domain's public parkland.
It is gently inclined and runs at approximately 2.4 km/h, taking a little over five minutes end to end. Murals inside depict Indigenous and local scenes. The initial opening date and later reconstruction are separate events.
The record conclusion has sufficient verification support.
Basis: direct confirmation by an authority
Guinness confirms the 207 m moving walkway in Sydney, its 9 June 1961 opening and 1994 rebuilding. This is a current urban moving-walkway category, not an all-time claim across temporary historic exhibition systems.
