ON THE RIGHT TRACK

RAIL


Artefact has extensive experience providing Aboriginal and historical heritage advice for rail projects. We are the go-to heritage firm for rail infrastructure projects.

Artefact have worked on almost all major rail infrastructure developments in NSW over the past decade including all Sydney Metro programs, Inland Rail, Epping to Thornleigh Third Track, Inland Rail, Wickham Transport Interchange, the CBD and Southeast Light Rail, Inner West Light Rail, Parramatta Light Rail, Newcastle Light Rail, upgrades to the Blue Mountains line for the new intercity fleet, and Lithgow Remodelling.

Along with these major projects we have worked with Sydney Trains and the Australian Rail Track Corporation on a host of other smaller rail projects in metropolitan and regional areas.

Artefact has also assessed over thirty heritage-listed railway stations, including Wynyard, Museum, Central, and Wentworth Falls stations, and worked extensively on the Transport Access Program at listed stations across NSW.

Recently, Artefact completed a number of Connecting with County and heritage interpretation projects for Sydney Trains and Transport for NSW, including two nominated for National Trust awards.

TEAM WORK

When you bring a rail project to Artefact, you’ll not only benefit from our passion and drive to deliver quality outcomes, you’ll also have access to our broader team of over 50 in-house experts, who are well-known and respected in the NSW heritage sector.
