FEATURE
PROJECTS
PARRAMATTA LIGHT RAIL. SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Client: Transport for NSW
Project Value: $2.4 B (stage one)
Construction date: 2019
Completion date: 2023
Parramatta is Sydney’s second Central Business
District, supporting a growing population of 4.5
million and counting. Local transport in the area is a
major issue, with significant congestion from private
car use, as well an existing public transport network
featuring indirect routes and long travel times for
commuters who currently use buses and trains.
Transport for NSW was looking for an option for a
truly integrated public transport network for Western
Sydney, one that could act as a catalyst for urban
renewal in the region and improve the sustainable
transport outcomes for the Greater Parramatta to
Olympic Peninsula Growth Corridor.
WSP had previously undertaken a feasibility study for
local government, focused on a Western Sydney Light
Rail network. This initial study generated the funding for
state government to undertake further planning (the
Parramatta Transport Corridor Study) in order to assess
the suitability of a number of public transport modes
and corridors, before a light rail network was proposed.
Project Value:
$2.4 billion
5 | RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMS PORTFOLIO
Our initial focus was on transport planning to identify
growth potential of corridors and centres for jobs and
housing, as well as opportunities for improved access
to land uses such as health, education, recreation,
and social housing. We then applied an engineering
overlay to the project to determine its feasibility at
an early stage, including consulting light rail delivery
experts at the beginning of the planning process in
order to maintain a focus on end-state operational
requirements.
WSP has recently won two of the detailed design
packages for Infrastructure and the Supply Operate
and Maintain package for Parramatta Light Rail.
When complete, the light rail will provide around
20km of new public transport, supporting identified
growth precincts and creating a sustainable future for
Western Sydney. It will also create new transport links
between key centres within the Greater Parramatta
region.

CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT AND SOUTH EAST LINE
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Client: Transport for NSW
Budget: $2.2 B
Construction date: 2015
Completion date: 2020
The Central Business District and South East Light
Rail Project comprises the construction and operation
of a new light rail service in Sydney, including
approximately 12km of new tracks, 20 stops, and the
maintenance and stabling facilities. The proposal also
includes the transformation of 40 percent of George
Street, through the development of a pedestrian zone
between Hunter and Bathurst streets.
During Stage I, WSP provided strategic planning
approvals advice to Transport for NSW (TfNSW) to
determine the likely approvals pathway for the project.
We also provided environmental and planning input
into the development of the definition design, which
involved coordinating an options assessment process
for various project elements.
Delivered on-budget and on-time
within a compressed program.
6 | RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMS PORTFOLIO
During Stage II, WSP prepared the Supporting
Documentation for the SSI Application, followed
by a large and complex Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS), as well as the Submissions Report,
which includes a Preferred Infrastructure Report.
During the process we managed a number of
specialist subconsultants for heritage, visual impact,
social impact, economic impact, and planted trees.
Specialist assessments for traffic, transport and access,
and noise and vibration and other environmental
issues were also incorporated into the EIS.
WSP maintained a close and collaborative relationship
with the TfNSW project team throughout the project
to ensure the project deliverables were delivered
within budget and on time, within a compressed
program.

NEWCASTLE LIGHT RAIL, NSW, AUSTRALIA
Client: Transport for NSW
Project Value: £594 M
Construction Date: 2017
Open to public: 2019
The Newcastle Light Rail is a high capacity, frequent
transport service through the city centre. At 2.7 km in
length, the project includes six stops and a depot.
The light rail runs from Newcastle Interchange at
Wickham to Pacific Park in Newcastle East, just 200 m
from Newcastle Beach.
WSP was initially engaged in 2014 as lead designer
on the project as part of a design joint venture that
undertook project scoping, definition and concept
design. In 2016, we moved into detailed design,
managing complex design issues and volumes
of changes to prepare approved-for-construction
documents.
Our work included detailing all infrastructure
and requirement specifications for all rail systems
components, including alignment and civil works, six
stops, a depot, power supply, TCS and communication
systems.
The design team introduced several innovations,
which resulted in:
• Maximising on-street parking
• Minimising lane-sharing between general traffic
and light rail vehicles
• Removing many overhead wire structures (made
possible because of new battery technology),
enhancing the new infrastructure’s look and
feel while preserving aesthetics and heritage
architecture
Our visualisation team worked alongside the design
team to continually optimise different parts of
the project. They confirmed data accuracy and
accessibility for use in 3D software packages and
provided a common design to work from.
The team achieved increased levels of detail by
combining various digital datasets to create one
comprehensive model
The model had increased realism and accuracy,
providing an engaging visualisation that reflected
the project environment. The team created several
different animations using this same model, helping
different parts of the project team to meet tight
deadlines and deliverables.
The animations also helped to maintain the
excitement around the project, as it enabled the
community and stakeholders to visualise the positive
impact it would have on their city.

The Light Rail is the first entirely

catenary-free or ‘wire free’
system in Australia.

 The development of a new
tram system provided a
solution to the city’s growing
public transport needs.

EDINBURGH TRAM, SCOTLAND, UK

Client: Transport Initiatives Edinburgh
Project Value: £700+ M
Start date: 2005
Date of Completion: Mid 2011
With congestion forecasted to double by 2021,
Edinburgh needed to address the issue of transport
capacity. The development of a new tram system
provided a solution to the city’s growing public
transport needs. Potential routes were assessed,
and the Leith Waterfront to Edinburgh airport route
was selected for development in Phase I. WSP
designed the first line of the planned network,
which extends from east to west across the city
and connects to the airport.
A wide and complex mix of urban realm and
streetscape was included in the route. Integration
with existing traffic flows required significant
remodelling of roadway and traffic signal controlled
junctions to permit practical runtimes for the tram.
WSP provided key stakeholder management,
interfacing with the city planning authorities,
Network Rail, and the bus operators.
WSP’s role included complete design services,
specifications for overall system functionality,
integration of the system with other transport
modes for road use, pedestrians, traffic management
and public transport issues, delivery of a design
that maximizes the speed of construction, system
engineering, systems assurance processes, safety
and Reliability Availability Maintainability (RAM)
procedures, and energy evaluation and reduction
recommendations, including regenerative braking

to connect Finland’s two largest cities. The light rail
will partially replace the Bussi-Jokeri, Helsinki’s busiest
bus service with 30,000 daily passengers.
12 | RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMS PORTFOLIO
In addition to light-rail tracks, the project plan will
include stations, connections, exchange stations,
the depot, as well as affected roads.
These components will be carefully designed to
provide robust data on costs, feasibility, and impacts
to facilitate proper decision making. The project
plan will serve as the basis for the construction
design process.
This vital cross-region service requires a rail link
with a higher capacity and a higher service level.
Raide-Jokeri will also significantly influence land
use in the vicinity of the track in the near future.
This consideration is also a part of the scope of
the project plan.
