Early contractor involvement will support planning and delivery of new terminal space and 12 swing gates
Sydney Airport has appointed global construction company Multiplex to provide construction planning and delivery expertise as it progresses the Major Development Plan for its T2–T3 terminal redevelopment.
The project is expected to deliver new terminal space and 12 swing gates capable of supporting both domestic and international operations. The redevelopment will also improve connectivity between the terminals and increase capacity to support passenger and airline growth.
Multiplex will provide early contractor involvement (ECI) as Sydney Airport develops the project, bringing construction and staging expertise to the planning process ahead of future delivery phases.
Paul Willis, Sydney Airport Group Executive, Planning and Delivery, said the early appointment would provide valuable construction expertise for a complex project being developed within an operational airport environment.
“This is a highly complex project in the heart of a live airport precinct. Early collaboration between the airport, designers and contractor will help us test how the project can be built and staged safely and efficiently, while minimising impacts on passengers, airlines and airport operations.”
Multiplex Regional Managing Director David Ghannoum said the company would contribute its experience in delivering large-scale and technically complex projects in operational environments.
The appointment follows Sydney Airport’s selection of Grimshaw and Mott MacDonald as lead consultants. Grimshaw is responsible for architectural design, while Mott MacDonald is leading engineering for the project.
The T2–T3 terminal redevelopment forms part of Sydney Airport’s A$6 billion capital works programme over the next five years and supports the airport’s long-term plans to accommodate forecast passenger growth to 72 million passengers annually by 2045.
The project is intended to improve the passenger experience while providing additional operational flexibility for airlines through the new swing gates, which will be capable of supporting both domestic and international services.
