Seaford Rail Extension

Project Overview

The Seaford Rail Extension is a 6km $291 million extension to the existing rail network south of Adelaide. The Seaford Rail Extension project included the provision of dual track, two stations and a 1.2km elevated bridge over the Onkaparinga Valley, which was designed to become the third largest incrementally launched bridge in the world.

The expansion was envisaged to service the rapidly expanding south and provide increased access to public transport. The project was also vital in the delivery of the overall network electrification with it being the location to be electrified and also receiving and testing new rolling stock.
