Sydney Yard Access Bridge

Laing O’Rourke has been awarded the contract to deliver the Sydney Yard Access Bridge project, the first early and enabling works package of the NSW Government’s Sydney Metro City and Southwest project.

The contract will see Laing O’Rourke responsible for the design and construction of a bridge for controlled heavy vehicle access from Regent Street into the Sydney Yard at Central Station to facilitate the construction of the Sydney Metro works.
