In order to delivering Dublin\u2019s Metrolink \u2013 Ireland\u2019s first metro railway, the client team led by Turner & Townsend<\/a> and WSP<\/a>, and supported by O\u2019Connor Sutton Cronin<\/a>, Mace<\/a> and PWC<\/a>, will help the project.<\/p>\n

Supporting the advancement and construction of the proposed 18.8km long Metrolink for Dublin, much of which is due to be underground, will be the aim of this multidisciplinary team. The new metro railway will add 16 new stations between Swords to the north of the city and Charlemont in the south.<\/p>\n

Additionally, providing a direct line to Dublin Airport from the city center, stopping at key city locations including Ballymun, O\u2019Connell Street and St Stephen\u2019s Green, will be up to this new network.<\/p>\n

While the project client Transport Infrastructure Ireland selected the team for this job, each of the partners appointed to a framework that runs for 13 years until 2036.<\/p>\n

According to the framework, determined time duration for development and construction activities is12 years, with a further year to bring Metrolink into operation.<\/p>\n

Describing the appointment of the client partner team as a key milestone in the development of the Metrolink project, Transport Infrastructure Ireland project director for Metrolink Aidan Foley said: “We believe the terms of engagement through the NEC4 professional services contract represents a real opportunity to work collaboratively and productively towards achieving our shared project goals. We are looking forward to working closely with our new colleagues to advance the project through the next stage of its development.”<\/p>\n

Following six months that Atkins bagged the job to carry out the detailed design of the advance works program for the project, the recent appointment was issued.<\/p>\n

Works such as utility diversions, archaeological and heritage works, facilitation of land access as well as environmental monitoring are the subsets of the seven contracts of this program.<\/p>\n

Ground investigations for the project got underway in December 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
