VINCI Construction wins two new contracts
for the City Rail Link line in Auckland, New Zealand
- Design-construction of Packages 5 (connection to existing
network) and 7 (rail systems) for the City Rail Link programme
- Alliance-type contracts
- Total value NZ$825 million, i.e. around €485 million
The Link Alliance, including VINCI Construction
Grands Projets (lead company) and
Soletanche Bachy International, subsidiaries of VINCI
Construction, and their partner Downer, plus designers Aecom,
WSP-Opus and Tonkin & Taylor – signed on 20 October 2020 the
contract for Packages 5 and 7 for the City Rail Link programme
in Auckland, New Zealand.
Package 5 includes the construction of two
structures (grade-separated junctions) and 2 km of new track, to be
constructed while maintaining traffic on the North Auckland
Line.
Package 7 includes installation of power supply,
overhead lines, signalling and the control system for the entire
City Rail Link.
These contracts follow on from the contract for
Package 3 won in July 2019 by the same consortium, covering
design/construction of a 3.45 km railway line extension, including
3.2 km of tunnel and three new stations.
The contracts are of the Alliance type, which
combines the designer-builder consortium and the client – City Rail
Link Limited – into a single team to undertake the project.
Delivery of all three Packages (3, 5 and 7) is scheduled for
2024.
At a total cost of 4.419 billion New Zealand
dollars (2.586 billion euros), the City Rail Link project will
double the number of people able to reach Auckland's city centre
within 30 minutes. This new train line is designed to accommodate
54,000 passengers per hour during peak hours, or the equivalent
capacity of two motorways with four lanes in each direction.
This project illustrates VINCI Construction's
ability to support large urban centres in successfully delivering
their urban mobility projects, as it is doing in France, Hong Kong,
Singapore, Qatar, USA and Canada.
