More than 320 people from the construction industry headed to Perth Convention Centre to hear from the Public Transport Authority on upcoming METRONET rail projects.

Executive Director, Major Projects Ross Hamilton and Project Director Kevin Guppy shared insights into the broad scope and challenges of the upcoming Thornlie-Cockburn Link and Yanchep Rail Extension projects, expected to go to market when the Project Definition Plans are released in 2018. 

To prepare the local construction industry for the future surge in rail projects, industry engagement will take place in late 2017. To ensure a fair and equitable process, the PTA welcomes member organisations and industry bodies to get in touch to discuss local market challenges and procurement methods that support the best outcomes for the project and community.
