The Sydney Metro Northwest, formerly the North West Rail Link, is the first stage of the Sydney Metro that became operational in 2019. Sydney Metro Stage 1 Northwest railing is the first to install Platform Edge Barriers Doors Systems and Platform Screens Doors Systems, allowing safe access in and out of the train for passengers.
Ascent worked alongside UGL and CIMIC and supplied skilled Installation teams undertaking Australia’s first PEB/PSD along stage 1, spanning from Tallawang Road Station to Chatswood Station and covering 13 Sites.
Our workers assisted with mark-out and site surveying, complete installation, alignment of all equipment and undertook testing commissions from start to end of the project.
We worked on several locations across Sydney: Tallawong Road Station, Rouse Hill, Kellyville, Bellavista, Norwest, Hills Showground, Castle Hill, Cherrybrook, Epping, Macquarie University, Macquarie Park, North Ryde, Chatswood
The $7 billion Sydney Metro Stage 1 Northwest railing project features 36 kilometres of track between Chatswood and Rouse Hill, single-deck trains with about 50% more hourly capacity than double-deck carriages, 15 kilometres of tunnels, 13 stops, including eight new stations, 18 sets of doors per platform and 72 individual doors per station, 4000 commuter parking spaces, a train stabling facility, a 4 km ‘skytrain’ viaduct, and 4 km of bridges.
