Working in Liverpool

What the ground is like, and who owns what.

Liverpool and the South West are being rebuilt around Western Sydney International Airport. The Aerotropolis at Bradfield, the M12 motorway, the Western Sydney Airport metro line and the new release estates around Leppington, Austral and Edmondson Park are all laying new trunk services through ground that until recently was farmland with a single water main and a rural power line. The new networks and the old ones overlap, and the records lag the construction.

The ground is Cumberland Plain clay, which absorbs radar and leaves electromagnetic tracing and potholing to do most of the work. Endeavour Energy supplies the electricity, Sydney Water the water and sewer, including the new Upper South Creek network, and Transport for NSW the Hume Highway, the M5 and M7 corridors. Liverpool Hospital and the health precinct add a dense core of private and public services in the city centre.

FAQ

Utility locating in Liverpool: common questions.

Do you work on the Aerotropolis and airport projects?

Yes. We locate and survey for civil contractors and designers across the Western Sydney Airport precinct, the M12 and the estate works around it, to the Transport for NSW SUI specification.

Why is radar less useful in Liverpool?

The clay soils of the Cumberland Plain are conductive and wet for much of the year, which attenuates the radar signal within a metre. We rely more on electromagnetic locating, sondes and vacuum excavation to QL-A here.

Who supplies power and water in the South West?

Endeavour Energy for electricity and Sydney Water for water and wastewater. Both have large new trunk assets through the growth areas that are not yet on every plan.

Do you cover the new estates?

Yes. Leppington, Austral, Edmondson Park, Oran Park and the Austral precincts are standard mobilisations from our team.
