Download About Transport for Tomorrow
Laing O’Rourke has partnered with KBR and Transport for NSW to deliver the rail infrastructure projects, including the More Trains More Services (MTMS) Stage 2 South works package, Sydney Metro enabling works, MTMS 3A Southwest package and the MTMS 3A STAR 2 Package.
The $730+ million MTMS2 South works, MTMS3A Southwest and STAR2 works, and Metro Enabling Works packages are expected to provide significant employment opportunities throughout Sydney and the NSW South Coast. This is intended to allow community members to work close to home. Transport for Tomorrow has also committed to an Infrastructure Skills Legacy Program to allow local workers and suppliers to gain experience on large projects.
Sustainability Policy
Sustainability is about maximising our environmental, economic and socio-economic performance in the interests of the Project our stakeholders and our planet. Transport for Tomorrow is uniquely placed through our operating model and value proposition to take a long-term approach to sustainability. This policy sits alongside our Health and Safety, Quality, Environmental, Security and Business Resilience policies as part of our global policy framework, underpinned by our Global Code of Conduct. To show the Project’s commitment to building a sustainable future, we are implementing a strategy that aims to create sustainable growth by working with TfNSW to deliver multiple Sustainability ratings via both the Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC) and TfNSW Sustainability Design Guidelines v4.0 frameworks. For further details on how our Operational Leadership Team (OLT) have pledged their commitment to sustainability, please refer to the Operational Leadership Team charter.
Why are we involved in the School?
This project will be engaging with thousands of businesses – from sole traders and small businesses to medium-sized and large organisations. We are passionate about working with our supply chain to ensure that we all share the same commitment to our sustainability priorities. To facilitate this, we encourage our suppliers to ‘learn as we go’, through our partnership with the Supply Chain Sustainability School.
Organisations of all sizes are signing up to the school so they can grow the skills and knowledge of their people, make more informed, sustainable and cost-effective decisions, operate more efficiently and sustainably, and remain competitive in today’s market. The school’s e-learning modules correspond directly to our Projects objectives and targets and through the online training, suppliers will gain a better understanding of the applicability of these targets to their work and our supply chain.
