The new metro between St Marys, the new Western Sydney International Airport and the Western Sydney Aerotropolis will provide a major economic stimulus for the Western Sydney, New South Wales and national economies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 23-kilometre railway will link residential areas with job centres and connect travellers from the new airport to the rest of Sydney\u2019s public transport system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Parklife Metro consortium comprises
\u2022 Plenary Group as sponsor, financial arranger, commercial adviser, SPV manager and
60% investor
\u2022 Siemens Mobility as sponsor and D&C contractor and Siemens Financial Services (via
Siemens Project Ventures) as sponsor and 20% investor
\u2022 Webuild as sponsor, D&C contractor and 10% investor
\u2022 RATP Dev as sponsor, O&M contractor and 10% investor<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur collective international experience will ensure the latest and best technologies and innovations are applied to Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport,\u201d Mr Oppenheim said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn addition to the amazing passenger experience provided through the trains and the stations and their surrounding precincts, we will also deliver a host of benefits to the local economy during construction, sourcing from local businesses and creating local jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnother highlight is the sustainability-linked debt financing arranged for the project. The cost of debt financing is linked to the project achieving and maintaining best-practice industry participation, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander representation and environmentally-sustainable outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe look forward to delivering such a city-changing project, one that will bring further momentum to the significant transformation taking place in Western Sydney.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
