With new twin railway tunnels all the way from Chatswood to Sydenham, this fast and effcient network will bust congestion and provide strategic rail links for customers right throughout the city, as well as revitalising the south west. The NSW Government values the input of industry in delivering this Project and we look forward to building on the success of the partnerships we have already established on the landmark Sydney Metro Northwest section of Sydney Metro, which is being delivered right now. Minister s message This document is an important update to Australia s biggest public transport project and outlines the role that industry can play in helping to deliver it. Sydney Metro will forever change how we get around our great global city. No form of transport ever before seen in Sydney can move as many people as quickly as this Project. Already, the NSW Government is half way through delivering Stage 1 of Sydney Metro in the city s north west, with services to start on Sydney Metro Northwest in the first half of 2019 with a metro train every four minutes in the peak. The NSW Government looks forward to working hand in hand with industry to deliver Sydney Metro City & Southwest.

3 ABOUT THIS INDUSTRY BRIEFING The first tunnel boring machine (TBM) will be in the ground before the end of 2018 on Stage 2 of Sydney Metro, bringing world class metro rail under Sydney Harbour and the Sydney central business district (CBD). The NSW Government has announced the locations of Sydney s new world class metro railway stations and that investigations will begin into potentially extending metro rail from Bankstown to Liverpool. The formal planning process for the Sydney Metro City & Southwest (the Project) has begun, including: a State Significant Infrastructure Application lodged confirming the metro route new metro stations confirmed for Crows Nest, Victoria Cross (North Sydney), Barangaroo, Martin Place, Pitt St (near Park Street) and new underground platforms at Central a potential extension of metro rail to Liverpool, which could cut travel times to the CBD by up to 15 minutes and reduce crowding on the existing T1 Western Line and T2 South Line. The NSW Government is considering a metro station at either Waterloo or The University of Sydney. The Sydney Metro City & Southwest project team has been established within Transport for NSW. Transport for NSW plays the lead role in the planning, development and delivery of major transport infrastructure in NSW. This document provides a general overview of the nature and scope of Sydney Metro City & Southwest and the role that industry can play in helping to deliver the Project. It also outlines an initial timeline for the next stages of the Project, including procurement. As further environmental assessments and detailed engineering studies are completed, and additional input from industry is received and considered, actual construction methodologies and procurement timeframes will be confirmed.

4 PROJECT SNAPSHOT Sydney Metro is Australia s largest public transport project. It will transform Sydney, delivering more trains and faster services for customers across the network. As a new stand-alone railway network, Sydney Metro is the solution to clearing the city s public transport bottlenecks and will deliver a quality of rail service never before seen in Australia. In conjunction with major upgrades to the T1 Western Line, Sydney Metro will deliver the capacity to increase the number of trains entering the CBD across the entire Sydney railway system from 120 to about 200 in the busiest hour of the day. This means the railway network across greater Sydney will have room for an extra 100,000 train customers an hour in the peak. The fully automated, state-of-the-art Sydney Metro network will have the capacity to operate 30 trains an hour through the CBD in each direction a train every two minutes each way. Already Sydney Metro Northwest (formerly known as North West Rail Link), between Rouse Hill and Chatswood, is well under construction with over half of the tunnelling now completed. Sydney Metro Northwest will open in the first half of 2019 and deliver fast, safe and frequent services between Rouse Hill and Chatswood. From Chatswood, Sydney Metro City & Southwest will extend metro rail between Chatswood and Bankstown, including a new crossing beneath Sydney Harbour, new railway stations in the lower North Shore and CBD, and the upgrade and conversion of the current line between Sydenham and Bankstown. KEY FEATURES More than 65km of metro rail from Rouse Hill to Bankstown New generation of fast, safe and reliable metro trains No timetable just turn up and go Higher frequency trains during the day and late at night Reduced travel times for customers across the rail network More trains, more often in the peak through the CBD, providing more options for customers and less crowding on trains, stations and platforms Sydney Metro will help reduce crowding on the T1 Western Line and on trains from the south west, by creating extra capacity More trains from Sydney s north west and south west Opal ticketing and fares the same as the rest of Sydney, providing a seamless journey for customers, making it even easier to move around Fast and easy to change to trains, buses, ferries and light rail Stand-alone line operating independently of the existing rail network, not subject to wider suburban delays Connecting Sydney s economic centres with a boost of activity up to $5 billion per year New choices for jobs, education and recreation Faster transport to employment growth areas.

5 ABOUT SYDNEY METRO CITY & SOUTHWEST Sydney Metro City & Southwest has two proposed core components: 1. Chatswood to Sydenham New 15 kilometre twin tunnels from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour through Sydney s CBD to Sydenham. 2. Sydenham to Bankstown upgrade Proposed upgrade and conversion of the existing 13.5 kilometre railway from Sydenham Station to Bankstown Station to metro standards. Technical and environmental studies for the Chatswood to Sydenham section of the Project are currently underway and will form part of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which is expected to be placed on public exhibition in the middle of This will be followed by an EIS for the Sydenham to Bankstown upgrade in late KEY Sydney Metro Northwest open 2019 Cudgegong Road Rouse Hill Kellyville DURAL Sydney Metro City & Southwest alignment Upgrade and conversion to metro rail Possible metro extension Sydney Trains surburban network Bella Vista Norwest Showground Castle Hill Cherrybrook M7 Motorway BLACKTOWN M2 Motorway Epping Macquarie University Macquarie Park North Ryde Chatswood PARRAMATTA RYDE Crows Nest PROSPECT M4 Motorway Victoria Cross LIDCOMBE Barangaroo University of Sydney Martin Place Pitt Street Central Liverpool Hurlstone Waterloo Dulwich Campsie Park Hill Bankstown Lakemba Canterbury Sydenham Belmore Marrickville Punchbowl Wiley Park Sydney Metro alignment Inside Sydney s new metro train 8

6 CHATSWOOD TO SYDENHAM Key features The Chatswood to Sydenham component of the Project includes the construction and operation of a new metro rail line from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour through Sydney s CBD to Sydenham. The Project will deliver six new metro stations, at: Crows Nest Victoria Cross (North Sydney) Barangaroo Martin Place Pitt Street Central Station (new underground platforms). An optional station may be delivered at Waterloo or The University of Sydney. Project features 16km of new metro line between Chatswood and Sydenham 15km of new twin rail tunnels Convenient interchanges with other forms of transport including Sydney Trains, NSW Trains, light rail, buses and ferries SYDNEY METRO KEY BENEFITS Better, more frequent and faster metro delivers improved connectivity across multiple levels: Moving more people faster than ever before Fast and easy to change to trains, buses, ferries and light rail no need to plan, just turn up and go Making it much easier to move around a growing city Making a big city better connected Aligning and integrating with other city - building transport projects Opening up fresh options for work, education, health care and much more Taking the guesswork out of travel the train is there when you need it Breathing new life into existing retail and cultural hubs Building the foundation for more metro lines in the future. All stations will meet the needs of pedestrians, cyclists, customers catching or getting off buses and taxis, and people being dropped off and picked up in cars There will be platform screen doors and all stations will be fully accessible New stations designed for passenger comfort including environmentally friendly features like natural ventilation and natural lighting Artist s impression of Victoria Cross (North Sydney) 10

7 Road V Prospect Rd Loftus St Addison Rd Stanmore Rd Salisbury Rd SYDENHAM TO BANKSTOWN The Sydney Metro City & Southwest Project proposes to upgrade and convert all 11 stations between Sydenham and Bankstown to metro standards. This upgrade would address one of Sydney s biggest rail bottlenecks. After the conversion, metro trains from Bankstown would run at least every four minutes in the peak, or 15 trains an hour. The Sydney Metro City & Southwest network would be fully segregated from existing Sydney Trains railway tracks between Sydenham and The upgrade between Sydenham and Bankstown would include works within the corridor and station upgrades. The T3 Line west beyond Bankstown would continue to be operated by Sydney Trains, serving stations between Cabramatta, Lidcombe and Bankstown. The T3 Bankstown Line effectively slows down Working together with major upgrades to Bankstown, improving the reliability of the Converting the T3 Bankstown Line would require the Sydney Trains network because of the way the Western Line, Sydney Metro will deliver new services on the line.

8 KEY CHANGES TO THE PROJECT FOLLOWING CONSULTATION Sydney Metro City & Southwest undertook consultation along the Project corridor to give community, business and key stakeholders an opportunity to help shape the Project. Around 800 people attended eight information sessions held along the Project alignment between Chatswood and Bankstown, with the Project team receiving more than 1,500 submissions during the consultation period. Chatswood Crows Nest Martin Place Victoria Cross (North Sydney) Barangaroo Pitt Street Central Early input from the community, business and key stakeholders has assisted the Sydney Metro City & Southwest team to refine the Project design and determine preferred station locations between Chatswood and Sydenham. Sydenham The The University University of of Sydney/ Sydney/ Waterloo Waterloo Marrickville Dulwich Hill Hurlstone Park Canterbury Campsie Belmore Lakemba Additional stations Sydney Metro City & Southwest sought feedback on proposed station locations at St Leonards or Crows Nest, Artarmon Industrial Area, Barangaroo and either The University of Sydney or Waterloo. As a result of this feedback and further work by the Project team, stations are now proposed at Crows Nest and Barangaroo. The NSW Government is considering a metro station at either The University of Sydney or Waterloo. Wiley Park Punchbowl Bankstown Barangaroo Station Crows Nest Station Based on investigations to date and stakeholder and community feedback, the preferred metro station location is Crows Nest. This has now been included as part of the Project s scope. The majority of submissions received supported a station at Crows Nest to provide much needed public transport relief. As a result of the overwhelmingly positive response to a proposed underground station at Barangaroo, NSW Premier Mike Baird and the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance announced in June 2015 that a station would be built in the precinct. A metro station at Barangaroo means Sydney s world-class metro rail system can be combined with the city s new global business hub. It is proposed that the line would provide a direct link with a new station to be located one stop away in the Martin Place financial centre. Project scope A key change resulting from early community consultation was the refinement of the Project scope to include tunnelling from Chatswood. Earlier Project plans had proposed that above-ground works would be required along a 3 kilometre section of the existing railway corridor between Chatswood Station and St Leonards. This would have involved above ground impacts including at Artarmon Station and potentially required residential property acquisition. As a result of design refinements and stakeholder and community feedback, the Project is now proposing to build tunnels from Chatswood through to Sydenham minimising above ground work between Chatswood and St Leonards. These changes result in a positive outcome for the community during construction and ensure the Blue Gum vegetation at Artarmon Reserve is protected and Artarmon Station is not disrupted. It is now proposed that the two components are: 1. Chatswood to Sydenham New 15 kilometre twin tunnels from Chatswood, under Sydney Harbour through Sydney s CBD to Sydenham. 2. Sydenham to Bankstown upgrade Proposed upgrade and conversion of the existing 13.5 kilometre railway from Sydenham Station to Bankstown Station to metro standards. Other station location option Artarmon Industrial Area The Project team considered a new metro station in the Artarmon Industrial Area. However, a station at this location will not proceed because of limited support from major stakeholders to change the area s industrial zoning and the possibility that the station site, near the Gore Hill Freeway, could add to car congestion in the area. 14 Artist s impression of Barangaroo Station

9 INDUSTRY FEEDBACK TO DATE In June 2015 more than 360 representatives from over 180 companies attended an industry briefing which was opened by the Hon. Andrew Constance, Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. During the first round of industry engagement, the project team met with over 40 local and international companies and received over 60 written submissions. Consultation has covered all aspects of the Project, potential delivery scenarios and major work elements, including: turn key delivery tunnelling stations systems civil rolling stock financing property development operations and maintenance. The project team has used feedback from the market sounding process to inform development of the Reference Delivery Strategy. In summary, this feedback included: a high level of interest in the Project at all levels while turn key delivery may provide time and interface risk advantages, the Project is too large to be competitively procured under a single contract package the Project scale is challenging. The maximum contract package recommended varied by market sector but for competitive bidding was generally in the order of: $4-5 billion for a major civil package (such as tunnelling and station excavation) in a joint venture with individual contractor capability of up to $2 billion $3-4 billion for private sector financing (assuming 2 3 bidders each raising committed finance) for a major Public Private Partnership (PPP) contract before consideration of a State capital contribution $ million for a systems package the current private finance market is buoyant with a strong appetite and liquidity across lenders and investors. Pricing for private finance has also improved unless the Project is to be delivered in stages, work packages should match capacity and capability and should be based around market sectors and disciplines significant interest in over-site and station precinct property development within the CBD and elsewhere along the alignment.

10 DELIVERY STRATEGY AND MARKET SOUNDING The first round of detailed industry engagement was undertaken in the first half of 2015, resulting in the development of a Reference Delivery Strategy (see page 20) for the packaging and procurement of major contracts for the Project. Development of delivery strategy Define project objectives Assess contract packaging options Assess contracting models The Reference Delivery Strategy outlines how the Project could be taken to market in terms of contract packaging, methodology and sequencing, timing, duration, funding and risk allocation. It also takes into account key physical, construction and market-related constraints.

12 DETAILED MARKET SOUNDING The project team is now commencing a process of further detailed market sounding to validate the Reference Delivery Strategy. The aim is engage with, and obtain meaningful input from across key market sectors. The team will seek feedback on the reference contract packaging approach and discuss with potential bidders the proposed approach to delivering the various works packages. While not part of any formal procurement process, the market sounding will be conducted in a structured manner. Industry input is being sought across a range of relevant issues, including: lessons learnt from other relevant and comparable projects both locally and internationally contract scope, packaging, size, sequencing, timing and duration market conditions and constraints key technical, constructability and risk allocation issues. Given the nature of the Project, the market sounding process is targeting a sample of industry leaders in each of the key Project elements. Participation in this engagement process will be selective and is entirely voluntary. Participation or non-participation in the process will have no impact on any entity s ability to participate in future formal procurement processes.
