Epping Bridge Project
The Epping Bridge Project is a complex brownfield integrated transport upgrade designed to reduce congestion, improve safety and support the long-term growth of Northwest Sydney. The project enhances the existing five-lane bridge, improving connectivity to Epping Town Centre and Station while preserving strategic flexibility for future road and rail integration, including the planned fourth track at Epping.
This project required a transaction and commercial approach capable of responding to the complexities of a constrained brownfield environment, significant stakeholder interfaces and the need to balance delivery and operational certainty with innovative design development.
This project required a transaction and commercial approach capable of responding to the complexities of a constrained brownfield environment, significant stakeholder interfaces and the need to balance delivery and operational certainty with innovative design development.
Altamira team members provided Transport for NSW with strategic transaction and commercial advisory services to design, structure and implement a bespoke two-stage procurement process incorporating an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) model and collaborative commercial framework.
The role included refinement of the original procurement strategy, development of tender and contract documentation - ECI deed and Incentivised Target Cost contract - and implementation of a highly interactive and collaborative tender process to elicit innovative design and construction methodologies which consider modern methods of construction (MMC) to minimise the impact on existing transport services and the constrained site.
This project reflects Altamira’s ability to advise on complex transport transactions where commercial strategy, interface management and delivery considerations must be tightly aligned. It also demonstrates the team’s capacity to apply sophisticated commercial thinking, disciplined governance and stakeholder coordination to secure robust, fit-for-purpose outcomes in challenging brownfield infrastructure settings.
