The Djilang Alliance comprising McConnell Dowell, Downer, Arup and WSP has been selected to deliver the 8km rail duplication between South Geelong and Waurn Ponds.
As well as duplication of the rail line, the works will include the construction of elevated rail bridges to replace level crossings at Fyans Street and the Surf Coast Highway, signalling upgrades and new station buildings and additional platforms at both South Geelong and Marshall.
The project is part of the joint Victorian and Federal governments’ investment of more than $1 billion in rail upgrades between South Geelong and Waurn Ponds and is part of the Regional Rail Revival program.
The works have a target completion date of late 2024.
