It is hard to miss, but in case you haven’t spotted the new Sydney Metro West stabling and maintenance facility in Clyde, here’s a peek at its progress from the sky! With a huge 380,000 square metre footprint, equivalent in size to almost 94 football fields, the facility will be the beating heart of Metro West operations and home to a new operations control centre, a train workshop and a yard where the metro trains will be stabled, cleaned and maintained once operational. Recent work at the site has seen construction of two bridge structures over A’Beckett’s Creek and Duck Creek, and earthworks to create an entirely even surface, ready for the tracks in the stabling yard to be laid.
