Project Description

Client:

Cross Yarra Partnership

Design:

Three-way joint venture with Bouygues, Lendlease and John Holland

Project Value:

Confidential

The MMTS PPP entails the design, construction, operation and financing of a twin nine-kilometre rail tunnel, five new underground stations and a range of systems required to support the effective operation of the new tunnel and stations, delivered as an availability-based PPP. The project is one of the largest transport infrastructure projects ever undertaken in Australia in response to strong and increasing demand for public transport.

As such the risk analysis and management was a critical part of the services provided on this project, including site utilities and related infrastructures. Given the size and complexity of the project the use of probabilistic modelling is critical to contingency.

The State of Victoria will separately procure a number of other work packages required to fully deliver the wider network capacity and performance benefits of MMTS. The interdependencies on a number of other projects creates a significant emphasis for interface management for the project.

WT are engaged to provide services to the consortium in the following areas:

  • Partnership dynamics and capability.
  • Design construction and methodology.
  • Operations and maintenance services estimates.
  • Commercial and contractual requirements.
  • Interface management.
  • Environmental Considerations (including Geotechnical).
  • Equator Principles.
  • D&C and Operational Cost Analysis.
  • Cost estimating.
  • Detailed programming advice.
  • Payment certification through construction phase.
