This week the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) has awarded a $30 million contract for significant sections of the Inland Rail.
The winning contractor, Arcadis Australia Pacific, has been tasked with delivering the design and implementation of rail signalling systems from concept through to final commission for the Inland Rail.
Arcadis will be responsible for the signalling and signalling civil design from Illabo in New South Wales through to Acacia Ridge and Bromelton in Queensland.
To design and deliver the rail signalling systems, Arcadis will need to use regional resources in Bathurst, Orange and Mudgee.
In fact, the multi-million-dollar contract will create up to 80 regional jobs in New South Wales. Local residents are encouraged to apply for these regional positions working with Arcadis over the next six years.
This major contract is just one of more than 1,000 contracts already awarded as part of the Inland Rail project.
