An AECOM-led consortium has been awarded a contract by the New South Wales Government to plan and design the North West Rail Link in Sydney, Australia. The project includes six new stations over a 22.4km addition to the CityRail network from Epping to Rouse Hill in North West Sydney. The project’s 15km of tunnels between Epping and Kellyville will be the longest rail tunnels ever constructed in Sydney.
The consortium also includes Parsons Brinckerhoff, Grimshaw Architects and Cox Architects.
