Project Description
Project Management for the elimination of four overhead electrical running tracks over a level crossing.
Lowering of four overhead electrified running tracks by three metres to minimise the grade and construction of a new bridge.
Project Outcome
The project was completed on schedule.

An innovative overhead gantry system was specifically designed and installed for the project to minimise impact to rail operations.
The scope required numerous intensive shutdowns of the rail system including a 120 hour shutdown to execute the lowering of the four main line tracks.
