SRL Annual Sustainability Report 2024
)
Suburban Rail Loop Authority (SRLA) is embedding sustainable environmental, social, and economic outcomes into the design, delivery and operation of Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) East. SRLA is committed to regularly reviewing, critically assessing, and reporting progress in these key areas of sustainability to promote transparency and accountability in meeting objectives.
This report describes the achievements in design and delivery of SRL East from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. SRLA has set ambitious targets and benchmarks with our contractors and has already achieved important sustainability outcomes for the community.
This 2024 report presents performance against SRLA’s sustainability objectives and targets delivered by SRL East and the three work packages awarded so far: Initial and Early Works, Tunnels South and Tunnels North.
The Initial and Early Works contract was awarded in 2021 to Laing O’Rourke to prepare sites for tunnelling and major construction, move and protect underground services and undertake ground improvements and road modifications. The Tunnels South contract was awarded in December 2023 to global consortium Suburban Connect to build the 16-kilometre southern section of SRL East twin tunnels between Cheltenham and Glen Waverley. The Tunnels North contract was awarded in November 2024 to global consortium Terra Verde to build the 10-kilometre northern section of SRL East twin tunnels between Glen Waverley and Box Hill. As construction progresses and further contracts are awarded, SRLA will continue to embed sustainability outcomes in the design, construction and operation of SRL East.
We will continue to share sustainability achievements and outcomes in annual sustainability reports.
