Sydney Metro Eastern Tunnel Package – John Holland, CPB Contractors and Chella Joint Venture (JCGJV) - NSW /CHINA
Sydney Metro is the largest public transport development in Australia. The John Holland, CPB Contractors and Ghella Joint Venture (JCG) has been engaged to deliver the Sydney Metro West – Eastern Tunnelling Package (ETP).
The scope of the ETP involves building 3.5 kilometers of twin tunnels beneath Sydney Harbour, linking The Bays with the CBD, as well as excavating the future Pyrmont and Hunter Street stations.
From The Bays, tunnel boring machines will travel beneath the harbour close to Anzac Bridge, continue to the new Pyrmont Station, then pass under Darling Harbour before arriving at Hunter Street in Sydney’s CBD.
Once in operation, Sydney Metro West will significantly increase rail capacity between Greater Parramatta and the CBD, reducing the journey between the two centers to around 20 minutes.
We conducted complete Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) of two HK slurry TBMs in China, ensuring they met all operational and safety standards before shipment.
Following this, we supervised the assembly, commissioning, and launch of both TBMs on-site, overseeing all aspects of mechanical and electrical installation.
Our team developed, trained, and managed mechanical crews to provide ongoing service and support for the project, while delivering day-to-day on-site supervision to maintain smooth operations.
In addition, we supplied permanent mechanical and electrical labour on a rotating roster and provided off-site services, including the rebuilding, refurbishment, and preventative maintenance of all types of TBM and mine tunnel equipment.
Through this comprehensive approach, we ensured the TBMs operated safely, efficiently, and reliably, minimizing downtime and supporting the successful completion of the tunnelling works.
Western Harbour Tunnel Package 2 - ACCIONA Construction Australia Pty Ltd – NSW/CHINA
The Western Harbour Tunnel project involves constructing a new motorway beneath Sydney Harbour to link North Sydney with Rozelle, providing a bypass of the CBD.
Stage 2 of the project covers the section from Cove Street, Birchgrove, to the Warringah Freeway near North Sydney, including tunnelling under the harbour and full tunnel fit out.
The contract for Stage 2 was awarded to ACCIONA by Transport for NSW in December 2022.
At The Face Mining is proud to announce that we have been awarded a contract to supply labour hire services for the Western Harbour Tunnel project in 2025.
This major infrastructure project represents a key milestone for Sydney and New South Wales, and we are honoured to play a part in its delivery.
Our team will provide skilled labour hire solutions to support construction and tunnelling operations, ensuring that the project is delivered safely, efficiently, and to the highest industry standards.
Being awarded this contract reflects our strong track record, trusted relationships, and growing reputation within the mining and civil construction sectors.
M6
At The Face Mining is currently providing comprehensive mechanical support on the M6 project, covering the management, inspection, repair and maintenance of underground machinery and mobile plant.
Our scope includes the retrieval of underground equipment, including dump trucks, drill rigs, shotcrete rigs and concrete agitators, which are brought to the surface workshop for detailed inspections and condition assessments. We work closely with each Original Equipment Manufacturers OEM to develop repair scopes and final costings, ensuring budget and time lines are met, equipment is maintained back to the oem standard and to the project requirements/ standards.
AT The Face Mining has also supported the establishment of new project workshops and mechanical teams, including the mobilisation of qualified mechanical personnel.
Working closely with the Mechanical Engineering team, we provide input into the procurement of new machinery and equipment, ensuring assets are suitable for the project's operational requirements.
Our ongoing works include machine repairs, preventative maintenance and regular inspections, as well as the assessment of equipment operated by subcontractors and hire companies. These inspections ensure all machinery meets the project's machine matrix, safety and operational requirements.
Through these services, AT The Face Mining helps maintain safe, reliable and fit-for-purpose equipment, while supporting equipment availability, minimising downtime and ensuring the project remains on track.
