Projects

This project is part of the broader Inland Rail initiative, which aims to upgrade the rail network in Victoria to facilitate the transport of double-stacked freight trains. The project is expected to be completed in 2027.

Connect People is excited to be a supplier to Rail Infrastructure Alliance (RIA), the last major contract awarded as part of the Metro Tunnel project. The RIA consortium comprises John Holland, CPB Contractors and AECOM, and is responsible for delivering the tunnel entrances in South Yarra and Kensington. Connect People is proud to be involved with the project.

The Metro Tunnel project will free up space in the existing City Loop, allowing more trains to run to and from the suburbs and taking Melbourne’s busiest train lines through a new tunnel under the city.

It is anticipated that the RIA package will create more than 1,000 jobs, and is expected to be completed in 2025.

Located in Sydney’s Darling Harbour, Pyrmont Bridge, which opened in 1902, is one of the oldest surviving electrically operated swing span bridges in the world and is recognised as a National Engineering Landmark. More than 6 million pedestrians and cyclists use the bridge, while 600 vessels pass through its swing spans annually.

To be carried out in multiple stages over the next five years, the $82 million restoration project will ensure the bridge remains an active city landmark. To maintain the ongoing structural integrity of the bridge, the deteriorated timber sections within the bridge pier and truss sections will be replaced in the first stage of the remediation project.

Gold Coast Infrastructure Solutions (GCIS) is a 50:50 joint venture between Downer and Ventia, established under a 10-year contract to provide comprehensive asset lifecycle delivery services for the City of Gold Coast’s water and sewerage networks.

This partnership is responsible for the delivery of essential water supply and sewerage services across the City of Gold Coast.

Ventia will provide incident response and maintenance services for the 3.6km Lane Cove Tunnel and 21km Hills M2 Motorway, which connect Sydney’s lower north shore and northwest regions.

Under the contracts, Ventia will provide Transurban with a new, tailored service delivery model that builds upon the confidence Ventia already inspires maintaining Transurban’s Eastern Distributor (ED) and Cross City Tunnel (CCT) assets.

A crucial element that helped shape the unique network approach is Ventia’s ability to leverage operational efficiencies drawing on existing experience rom its other Sydney-based transport contracts.
