Sydney Water has secured a delivery partner to manage the first stage of a multi-billion-dollar program of work, which will enable the construction of 90,000 new homes in Western Sydney.
Jacobs and Seymour Whyte (JSW), a joint venture, has been awarded a management contract for stage 1 of the multi-stage Upper South Creek Networks Program.
In this first stage, they will oversee the design, procurement, and construction of up to $170 million in critical wastewater infrastructure.
Over the next 12 years, the entire work program will deliver over 96 kilometres of wastewater pipelines and nine pumping stations within the Upper South Creek precinct.
By 2056, it is estimated 90,000 new dwellings and 200,000 jobs will be in the Upper South Creek Catchment region.
