Australia’s Inland Rail moves forward
The Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) has signed a contract worth more than AUD 650 million (EUR 402 million) with joint-venture Trans4m Rail to construct the next section of Inland Rail between Narrabri and North Star in NSW Australia.
The joint-venture between John Holland and SEE Civil will see the upgrade of 171 km of existing track between Narrabri and North Star – known as Phase 1.
The contract signals the next major milestone for the nationally significant infrastructure project covering more than 1,700 km between Melbourne and Brisbane, ARTC said. The first section of Inland Rail between Parkes and Narromine in NSW was completely last month. (ben)
