The Challenge

As part of the $1.5 billion More Trains, More Services program, the Sydney Growth Trains project aims to provide customers with a new fleet of 24 eight-car comfortable, air-conditioned trains.

What We Did

Plan Safe were brought in during the early design phase, a month after contract award, and were involved until all 24 Initial Sets were in service. Our team were heavily involved in designing and implementing the system safety assurance program for the project.

Plan Safe prepared the System Safety Management Plan, facilitated all hazard identification and analysis workshops, and authored various Safety Cases, including the Design Safety Case, Dynamic Testing Safety Case, and Through Life Support (Maintenance) Safety Case.

The Outcome

The Sydney Growth Trains project has delivered 41 modern, double decked trains to the people of Sydney. It is the fastest ever delivery of trains from contract signing to passenger service in Australia.
