Queensland Train Manufacturing Program

We consulted with the community to manage environmental impacts and planning approvals, leveraged our signalling technical expertise, and re-engineered a major structure to help improve capacity and reliability of freight trains.

A major regional city in the heart of NSW’s famous Riverina region, Wagga Wagga is known as the birthplace of the Chiko Roll and some of Australia’s most well-known sports people.

City Rail Link (CRL) is the largest and most complex transport infrastructure project ever undertaken in Aotearoa New Zealand. As part of Link Alliance, WSP has worked with City Rail Link Ltd and Link Alliance members to help deliver a twin-tunnel underground rail link through central Auckland, including new stations at Te Waihorotiu and Karanga-a-Hape and a redeveloped Maungawhau station. The project will transform how people move through Tāmaki Makaurau, increasing rail capacity, improving access to the city centre and wider region, and enabling faster, more frequent and better-connected journeys.

Helsinki’s Kruunuvuori Bridge, designed by WSP in Finland, is one of the world’s longest bridges solely for public transport, pedestrians and cyclists.

In a first for Melbourne, WSP applied innovative structural engineering techniques to grow this inner city building in Melbourne to one of the tallest timber building extensions in the world. By using the latest in timber construction technology, WSP designed to use cross laminated timber (CLT) to transform the existing six-storey building by adding a 10-storey hotel.

A key piece in Monash University’s reinvigoration of the Clayton campus southern precinct, the Learning and Teaching Building, is also the largest infrastructure development program in the campus’ history. 

The new free-standing, two-storey building has been designed with integrated architectural and landscape solutions, to provide much needed office accommodation for 102 members of parliament and their support staff.

Major heritage conservation and restoration work for the State Library Victoria, has ensured that the iconic building remain true to its rich history and character, while adding forty per cent more public space and seventy per cent more seating alongside a range of new services.

This integrated, mixed-use precinct has a technically advanced form and connects with Melbourne’s major transport and retail hubs.

When Bike Share Toronto wanted to expand its network, they looked to WSP for help. Learn how WSP was a key resource in delivering this critical program.

The product of our research and development, Floodly uses machine learning methods to predict river levels and predict flood risk using only precipitation data. Floodly’s rapid predictions complement traditional hydraulic modelling, which can be slower and more costly to apply. It is also challenging in complex urban catchments.

The Thameslink programme upgraded a live north-south rail route through London, including infrastructure dating back to the 1860s. For Network Rail, we developed the safety programme for the European Train Control System (ETCS) in the central Core, enabling metro-style frequency while retaining a conventional signalling fallback.
