Biggest infrastructure project in Coffs Harbour’s history

DT Infrastructure was awarded a major signalling project by the Public Transport Authority (PTA) of Western Australia.

In a 46:54 joint venture with ALSTOM Transport Australia Pty Limited, DT Infrastructure will deliver the AUD1.6 billion (RM5.0 billion) contract for the Perth, Western Australia High-Capacity Signalling Project.

The scope of works includes:

  • To design, supply, test, commission and maintain the state-of-the-art- Urbalis Communications-based Train Control on Perth’s suburban rail networks.
  • Upgrading the existing signalling and control systems to an integrated Communications-Based Train Control System.
  • To be delivered in multiple line-by-line stages to minimise disruption to train operators.
Upon completion, the project will enable 40 percent increase in network capacity, energy-saving benefits, leading cybersecurity and future-proofing of the network for growth with minimum disruption to commuters.

This project, which is the world’s largest signalling project by route length, reinforces Gamuda’s strategic position in Australia and showcases its capability to deliver large-scale, transformative infrastructure solutions.

Early works for this project commenced in the second half of 2024.
