Sydney Light Rail (incorporating CBD South-East Light Rail and Inner West Light Rail)

Delivery Agency:

Project Description:

A central element of delivering Sydney’s Light Rail Future is the City and South East Light Rail. This new light rail line will extend from Circular Quay along George Street to Central Station to Moore Park, then to Kingsford via Anzac Parade and Randwick via Alison Road and High Street.

This route was selected by NSW Government following extensive feasibility investigations and consultation with key stakeholders. Transport for NSW is now progressing delivery of the CSELR extensions in consultation with councils, business, industry and the community.

The CSELR will be delivered via two major contracts:

A limited Early Works package, to be delivered as a Managing Contract; and
Main Works package, to be delivered as a PPP

The Early Works include selected upfront activities, adjustments to utilities and other works and was awarded to Laing O'Rourke Construction Australia in June 2014.

The Main Works PPP will cover design, construction, services relocations, operation and maintenance of the 12-kilometre project, as well as the operation and maintenance of the Inner West Light Rail network.

The PPP will be provided through availability payments to the PPP private sector partner on meeting certain performance targets. The Main Works PPP was awarded to the ALTRAC Light Rail consortium.

Since mid-2015, ALTRAC Light Rail also operates and maintains the existing light rail network, which operates from Central to Lilyfield and through the inner west to Dulwich Hill.

Project Name:

Sydney Metro City & Southwest (SMCSW) Operations, Trains and Systems 2 (OTS2) PPP

Delivery Agency:

Sydney Metro

Project Description:

The Sydney Metro City & Southwest project extends the metro railway from Chatswood under Sydney Harbour, through the CBD and beyond to Bankstown.

The project includes two components:

a) Chatswood to Sydenham: new 15.5 kilometre twin tunnels from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour through the Sydney CBD to Sydenham, with new stations being delivered at Crows Nest, Victoria Cross, Barangaroo, Martin Place, Pitt Street and Waterloo along with new underground platforms at Central Station, and

(b) Sydenham to Bankstown: upgrading and converting the T3 Bankstown Line to metro standards between Sydenham and Bankstown with all stations to be fully accessible with lifts and level access between platforms and trains.

When complete, Sydney will have 31 metro railway stations and a 66km standalone metro railway system.

SMCSW is being delivered through multiple contract packages including (but not limited to) a tunnelling package, multiple stations packages and a line-wide contract. The OTS2 package is an availability PPP where the State will retain demand risk. A substantial State contribution will also be made during construction. The OTS2 PPP is an augmentation to the existing (Northwest) OTS PPP and has been structured so that on the "OTS Incorporation Date", the OTS Project Deed will fall away as a standalone document and the Sydney Metro Northwest and Sydney Metro City will be governed by the OTS2 Project Deed. The OTS2 Project Deed will also govern the on-going delivery and subsequent operation and maintenance of Sydney Metro Southwest when it is completed.

a concession period of 22 years post-completion after which the road would revert to public ownership (since extended to 34 years);

a toll of $1.10 for cars and $3.30 for trucks (December 1989 dollars), escalated at the greater of CPI or 9% per annum (the right to increase tolls at 9% per annum was removed in 1993 under the MS Western Extension arrangement).

Interlink proposed to finance and construct the grade separated interchange at the intersection of the MS and Moorebank Avenue with the estimated capital cost of $32 million, to be funded by the increased traffic projected as a result of the improved traffic flow, with the balance of the cost being funded by an increase in the MS concession term until August 2023.
