Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Level Crossing Removal Authority (LXRA) was established in 2015 by the Victorian Government to oversee the largest rail infrastructure project in the state\u2019s history. Central to the project is the elimination of 50 level crossings across metropolitan Melbourne by 2022, in addition to upgrading or constructing more than 20 train stations, laying many kilometres of new track and making associated rail improvements.

We provide SME resources to support alliances and clients for the delivery phase. We were awarded the panel in 2017 and continue to offer ongoing panel support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through this panel, SYSTRA was engaged by LXRA and the\u00a0South Eastern\u00a0Program Alliance (alliance comprising the LXRA, Laing\u00a0O’Rourke, Jacobs, and MTM) to develop an integrated\u00a0station platform partially supported by the U-trough\u00a0bridges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Using technology to optimise disruption planning<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

To allow commuters to travel freely during times of rail disruption, Metro Trains Melbourne (MTM) were required to facilitate bussing alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help ensure an appropriate and efficient bus alternative, SYSTRA and VISEO were chosen to deliver the Bus Disruption planning tool.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bus Disruption Tool combines data and analytics to accelerate and streamline disruption planning. It allowed Metro Trains Melbourne to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
