Sydney Metro Northwest: Operations Trains & Systems

Designed to meet the current and emerging transport needs of Sydney’s rapidly growing North West, Sydney Metro Northwest features a new generation of reliable, fully-automated metro trains and will transform public transport in Sydney.

Sydney Metro Northwest, formerly known as the North West Rail Link, is the first stage of Sydney Metro, Australia’s largest public transport project. The project is being delivered in three major contracts: Tunnels and Station Civil Works; Surface and Viaduct Civil Works; and Operations, Trains and Systems (OTS).

The OTS package comprises: the design, construction and commissioning of rail infrastructure (including underground, open-cut and elevated stations at eight locations, a Sydney Metro train facility, and all associated track, overhead wire structures and combined services routes); procurement of rolling stock; operation and maintenance; and financing.

We were engaged in association with Mott MacDonald and KBR as the Design Joint Venture (DJV) for the OTS package. The DJV is providing civil engineering, structural, mechanical, electrical and public utility services.

We are providing the civil engineering, structural, mechanical, electrical, public utilities and vertical transport designs. Fast-track design works were undertaken over 24 months, using approximately 150 employees in five countries.
The construction phase is set to begin in 2019.
