Where is the Demand for Civil Workers Coming From?
WestConnex

NorthConnex
The NorthConnex is an ambitious project, it will be the longest road tunnel project in Australia. The length of the two main NorthConnex tunnels is estimated to be 9 km each. The tunnel itself will be up to 60 meters in some locations – to give you a better idea this is the height of the Sydney Opera House.
Sydney Light Rail Project
The Sydney Light Rail network is currently expanding its service from the CBD to the South East of the city. The construction phase is expected to be completed by 2018 with the first services running in 2019.
Various Other Infrastructure and Civil Projects
Transport NSW has other massive projects such as the Metro North West and the proposed Western Sydney airport in Badgerys’s Creek.
Construction Related Civil infrastructure
The explosion of new home builds has increased pressure on waste water mains, storm water drains and water mains already in place. This has led to Sydney Water investing hundreds of millions of dollars in new and upgrading previous water delivery infrastructure.
As you can see it’s clear from the above projects that the demand for civil workers is huge and that this demand will only increase over the next few years.
