VINCI is awarded the Port Rail
Transformation Project in Melbourne (Australia)
- A design and build contract worth
125 million AUD (€77 million)
- Meet the needs of a growing port
and reduce truck movements
- Key environmental construction
initiatives
Seymour Whyte, a VINCI Construction subsidiary
based in Australia, has been selected for a design and build rail
and pavement upgrade contract of the Port of Melbourne, Australia’s
largest container and general cargo port, handling more than
one-third of the nation’s container trade.
This early contractor involvement (ECI) project,
worth 125 million AUD (€77 million), will allow more containers
moved by rail more efficiently, by-passing roads in inner
Melbourne. In addition to increase existing terminal capacity, it
includes a new rail terminal construction.
Works will take place from October 2021 to
2023.
Seymour Whyte will also implement environmental
initiatives:
- a water treatment system to treat
contaminated ground water
- all asphalt and concrete being
recycled
- assessment of the reuse of
approximately 33 000m3 of soil on-site to reduce the amount of new
material used on-site
- demolition works anticipated to
achieve an 80%+ recycle rate
