  • Ugl
    Lead Engineer C&C - Fire Life Safety And Fire Services At Ugl - Cross River Rail Project
    Ugl Aug 2023 - Dec 2024
    North Sydney, Nsw, Au
    I am excited to announce my involvement in the Joint Venture between CPB Contractors, BAM, Ghella and UGL (CBGU D&C JV), as the contracting for Fire Services and Life Safety Lead C&C for the Tunnel and Stations package of the Cross River Rail project. Cross River Rail is a new 10.2km rail line from Dutton Park to Bowen Hills, which includes 5.9km of twin tunnels under the Brisbane River and CBD. Cross River Rail will unlock the bottleneck at the core of Brisbane’s transport network, allowing more trains to run more often and integrating with new roads and bus services allowing future network growth in the region. The project will increase public transport network services, their connectivity and encourage more people to use public transport, helping to ease congestion on major arterial roads.
