Overview

Inland Rail is a freight rail project that will connect Melbourne and Brisbane via regional Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. Spanning over 1,700km, including floodplains, mountain ranges and the southern hemisphereโ€™s longest rail freight tunnel, the geotechnical challenges on the Inland Rail project have called for innovative approaches to meet project and community needs.

This presentation will provide an update on the status of the Inland Rail project, discuss the challenges being faced on the delivery of the project and offer insight into the geotechnical initiatives being applied.
