Western Sydney Airport Landside Civils and Buildings package

BMD Constructions is delivering the landside civils and buildings package for the Western Sydney International Airport. As part of a joint venture with AeroWest, the contract involves the design and construction of carparks, roads, bridges, utilities connections, operational buildings, and landscaping.

In line with BMD’s commitment to integrate environmental considerations that reduces emissions throughout projects, an environmental management framework has been developed with initiatives to use recycled and sustainable material during construction.

With works on track to be delivered by December 2024, the project will further reinforce BMD’s capabilities in delivering leading infrastructure to the aviation sector.

Scope

The scope of works for the project includes:

• earthworks and drainage
