APPENDIX C – CASE STUDIES

Example 1: Incorporating safety in design at the Alice Springs to Darwin Rail Link
This was a Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT) project to construct a railway from
Alice Springs to Darwin and take over an existing railway from Tarcoola to Alice Springs.
It was a design and construct contract. A design working group was developed by the client, and included representatives of the client, state and territory governments and other external stakeholders.

Weekly meetings were held during the design stage to ensure that the design was both practical
