Scaffold Walkway at The Bays Precinct

The Sydney Metro West project is a transformative infrastructure initiative aimed at delivering a new, 24-kilometre underground rail line connecting the central business districts (CBDs) of Parramatta and Sydney. This project is split into several key packages, including the Central Package, which focuses on the section from Sydney Olympic Park to The Bays Precinct.
The Challenge

The Sydney Metro West project is a transformative infrastructure initiative aimed at delivering a new, 24-kilometre underground rail line connecting the central business districts (CBDs) of Parramatta and Sydney. This project is split into several key packages, including the Central Package, which focuses on the section from Sydney Olympic Park to The Bays Precinct.

The scope of the Central Package includes the excavation and construction of 11 kilometres of twin tunnels, five new stations, a TBM launch site, and other critical infrastructure elements, exemplifying the scale and significance of this undertaking.

SafeSmart Access has been working with Tier 1 contractors across the span of the project from The Bays and onwards towards Sydney Olympic Park.
