Degnan will deliver the design and construction for improvements to the station forecourt and amenities as well as extensive upgrades to the stabling facility on Lackey Road to accommodate the operational requirements for the new Regional Rail fleet once they enter operation.
We look forward to working with the local community, Transport for NSW, NSW Trains and ARTC in undertaking these upgrades.
These works complement other accessibility upgrades Degnan completed in the Southern Highlands, including Bowral and Mittagong Stations.
