  • Digital Starting Blocks: the Sydney Metro Experience Samantha Mcwilliam1, Damien Cutcliffe2 1&2WSP, Sydney, AUSTRALIA Corresponding Author: [email protected]
    Digital starting blocks: The Sydney Metro experience Samantha McWilliam1, Damien Cutcliffe2 1&2WSP, Sydney, AUSTRALIA Corresponding Author: [email protected] SUMMARY Sydney Metro is currently Australia’s biggest public transport project. Stage 1 and 2 of this new standalone railway will ultimately deliver 31 metro stations and more than 66 kilometres of new metro rail, revolutionising the way Australia’s biggest city travels. Once it is extended into the central business district (CBD) and beyond in 2024, metro rail will run from Sydney’s booming North West region under Sydney Harbour, through new underground stations in the CBD and beyond to the south west. Sydney Metro City and Southwest (Stage 2) features twin 15.5km tunnels along with 7 new underground stations between Chatswood and Sydenham. The line is extended beyond Sydenham with an upgrade of the existing Sydney Trains heavy rail line to Bankstown. The adoption of a digital engineering approach on the Sydney Metro City and Southwest project resulted in an unprecedented level of collaboration and engagement between designers, clients and stakeholders. The use of tools such as WSP’s bespoke web based GIS spatial data portal Sitemap allowed geographically mapped data to be made securely available to all stakeholders involved on the project, enabling the team to work off a common data set while simultaneously controlling/restricting access to sensitive data. Over the course of the project this portal was enhanced to act as a gateway to all other digital content developed for such as live digital design models, virtual reality and augmented reality content. This portal was the prototype for what is now called ‘WSP Create’.
