When the Northwest Rapid Transit (NRT) consortium– including MTR Corporation, John Holland, CPB Contractors, UGL Rail and Plenary Group – was awarded the operations, trains and systems contract for Stage 1 of the Sydney Metro Northwest line they contracted Marr to come up with a craneage solution that needed thinking outside the box, literally.
We work with our clients to find a craneage solution that works – no matter how big or complex the job is.
Working alongside a 200m x 30m cut-and-cover station box in a congested site that was landlocked between two existing roads to lift loads weighing up to 60 tonnes.
With a 330-tonne capacity M2480D and 200-tonne capacity M1680D installed along the station box, our solution provided lifting capacity across the entire site without the need for costly groundworks.
Adopting our solution changed the way the entire project was constructed and has since become a new blueprint for other station builds on the Sydney Metro project.
