AWP2 Enabling and Final High Voltage Works

PROJECT OVERVIEW

RSGx were awarded the AWP2 Enabling and Final High Voltage Works package with the Southern Program Alliance, on the rail line from Frankston to Glen Huntly. The Southern Program Alliance is a section of the $6 billion Level Crossings Removal Project, which involves the removal of 75 level crossings in Melbourne, Victoria. The works, which commenced upon award, in September 2020, initially consisted of HV cable hauling, terminations, earthing and bonding scopes. The package

then progresses through to the commissioning phase, which is planned for late 2021.
