“Crews working on Melbourne’s Metro Tunnel Project have clocked 40 million hours of work in delivering the city-shaping project.”
@ajsadauskas@lemmy.ml Some exciting news about Melbourne’s metro tunnel:
"The Metro Tunnel’s stations are quickly taking form, with crews still working around the clock to get the twin nine-kilometre tunnels ready for the first test trains to begin in the second half of this year.
“As progress continues, the focus of the project is shifting from building the tunnels and stations to making sure the high-tech signalling, communications and other systems that allow trains to run safely are in place – making Melbourne a “turn-up-and-go” network, similar to world-class commuter cities like Singapore and London.”
