The proposed Queensland Cancer Centre would be based within the Herston Health Precinct at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital (RBWH) and will be managed by Metro North Health.

The project’s scope has yet to be determined, however, it is currently expected to comprise approximately 150 beds with medical oncology, radiation oncology, and allied health services provided.

Stage Two of the Parramatta Light Rail will connect Stage One of the Parramatta Light Rail and Parramatta CBD to Sydney Olympic Park via Camellia, Rydalmere, Ermington, Melrose Park and Wentworth Point. It will have 15 stops over a 10-kilometre two-way track and will connect to the Sydney Metro West, the heavy rail in Parramatta and Sydney Olympic Park, and ferry services at Rydalmere and Sydney Olympic Park.

The Beaches Link is a proposed tunnel linking the Northern Beaches to the Warringah Freeway in North Sydney.

The future Western Harbour Tunnel will also connect with the Warringah Freeway, allowing motorists to travel on a single roadway from the Northern Beaches, through the Western Harbour Tunnel and into the WestConnex roadways system.

Detailed Designs in the Project Update indicate Beaches Link will include over 11 kilometres of tunnels as well as around five kilometres of surface road upgrades. The main tunnel between Cammeray, connecting to the Western Harbour Tunnel, and Balgowlah will be three lanes each way, with connections to Wakehurst Parkway and Gore Hill Freeway two lanes each way. The preferred method for constructing the tunnels involves using multiple road header machines, with the section under Middle Harbour to use immersed tube tunnels.

Three kilometres of Wakehurst Parkway to the Northern Beaches Hospital will be upgraded along with further surface works to integrate the tunnels with the existing road network.

The Dungowan Dam Replacement project will see the existing dam replaced with a larger structure, increasing capacity from 6.3 to 22 gigalitres.

Included in the scope of the project is: 

• construction of a new dam wall 3.5 kilometres downstream of the current wall, increasing the dam’s capacity from 6.3 gigalitres (GL) to 22.5 GL
• decommissioning the existing Dungowan Dam, and
• construction of a 55-kilometre large diameter pipeline between Dungowan Dam and the Callala Water Treatment Plant.

Dungowan Dam is located on Dungowan Creek near Tamworth NSW. The Dam currenlty supplies water to Tamworth via a 55-kilometre pipeline.

The Wyangala Dam Upgrade involves a major augmentation of the 1,218 gigalitre Wyangala Dam with the aim of improving water security and flood management in the Lachlan Valley. The project involves:

• raising the embankment and downstream rockfill to increase storage capacity by 650 gigalitres
• raising the spillway and intake towers of the dam by 10 meters, and
• other works to ensure safe access and maintenance on the crest and downstream areas.

The proposed Sydney Metro - Western Sydney Airport (WSA) - Stage Two project would see the WSA metro line extended from the end of first stage at Bradfield to Glenfield via Leppington.

The New South Wales Government's Sydney Metro program is the biggest public transport project in Australia. It is a fully-automated metro rail system, the first in Australia, and will increase Sydney’s rail capacity by up to 60 per cent by 2024.

Sydney Metro West

Sydney Metro West will deliver approximately 24 kilometre of underground metro railway connecting Parramatta to Sydney CBD. The proposed Sydney Metro West will work together with the existing T1 Western Line between the Sydney CBD and Parramatta. The alignment comprises stops at:

• Westmead
• Parramatta
• Sydney Olympic Park
• North Strathfield
• Burwood North
• Five Dock
• The Bays
• Pyrmont, and
• Sydney CBD.

These involve new constructions and upgrades to existing stations.

 As of October 2020, the main project packages:

• Trains, Signalling, Maintenance and Operations (TSMo)
• Line-wide systems and depot package
• Integrated Station Development packages at Parramatta, Sydney Olympic Park, The Bays Precinct and Sydney CBD
• a single stations and associated developments package for remaining stops
• three tunnelling contracts - Western, Central and Eastern packages, and
• Enabling works (multiple contract packages).

The Government will safeguard the ability to extend Sydney Metro to the south-east of the Sydney CBD via Zetland, serving the Green Square town centre, as well as towards the west beyond Westmead.

Sydney Metro Western Sydney Airport ($11 billion)

Formerly known as Sydney Metro Greater West, the Western Sydney Airport Line will see a new metro rail line run from St Marys on the existing T1 heavy rail line to the Western Sydney Aerotropolis near Bringelly, via Western Sydney Airport (WSA).

The Line comprises of following stops:

• upgraded existing station at St Marys
• Orchard Hills
• Luddenham
• Airport Business Park
• Airport Terminal, and
• Western Sydney Aerotropolis.

• Station Boxes and Tunnelling (D&C Contract)
• Surface and Civil Alignment Works (D&C Contract), and
• Advanced Enabling Works (Various packages).

The estimated total cost of the line is $11 billion. Planning investigations continue for the North South Rail Link, extending from WSA Aerotropolis to Macarthur, and the South West Rail Extension, extending from the Aerotropolis to Leppington. Should these future stages proceed as metro projects, the full Sydney Metro Western Sydney Airport Line is estimated to cost between $15 and $20 billion.

The new CIT campus is proposed to include:

• smart classrooms
• cyber training and digital learning spaces
• a training restaurant with a commercial kitchen
• collaboration and group-work learning spaces
• function rooms, activated common areas and greenspace
• incubator hubs and spaces for collaboration with industry and local businesses
• a pedestrian boulevard linking the interchange to Woden Town Square
