Sydney, Australia's largest city, is growing fast. And with any growing city comes the need for growing infrastructure.
The city's current airport is in the middle of the city, limiting its growth options. To overcome the challenge, planners selected a site in Western Sydney for an entirely new airport. Construction started a few years ago, and the airport will open officially in 2026.
However, an airport outside the city requires additional infrastructure, which leads me to the Sydney Metro Project.
The overall project calls for over 100 kilometers of new metro under the city, making it one of the largest infrastructure projects in Australian history. Since it's so enormous, Sydney Metro broke the project into segments, and for this video, we're focused exclusively on Western Sydney Airport, Station Boxes and Tunneling segment.
CPB Contractors and Ghella gave us incredible access to the project, which requires about 9.8 kilometers of tunneling. It's the best access to a tunneling project I've ever had!
