Shepparton Line Upgrade

Coleman Rail is a leading construction contractor specialising in Metro, Freight & Heavy Haul and Light Rail infrastructure across Australia. 3D Safety have been engaged by Coleman Rail over the last few years across some of the largest rail projects in Victoria including the Shepparton Line Upgrade Project, Murray Basin Rail Project, Minor Works Packages across the State and the Caulfield to Dandenong project.

As part of the Regional Rail Revival programme in Victoria, Coleman Rail and KBR as part of an alliance with Rail Projects Victoria and V/Line, were awarded Stage 2 of the Shepparton Line Upgrade project, which will deliver faster and more frequent services, and will allow modern VLocity trains to travel to and from Shepparton for the first time.

3D Safety & Coleman Rail

This $400m project started in April 2021 and 3D Safety was engaged by Coleman Rail to provide the workforce and plant management technology across the project.

Annabel Reynolds, Safety Manager for the Shepparton Line upgrade Project - Coleman Rail, explains how 3D Safety is engaged on the project:

“We were excited to partner with 3D Safety on the Shepparton project. Their easy-to-use application for workers in the field through to powerful analytics and real time data has delivered huge productivity and compliance benefits across the project” says Annabel.

"It has streamlined daily tasks for our supervisors by only allowing approved persons and plant to enter site, capturing records of everyone onsite and who has attend prestarts – all electronically... I now get real-time data from the sites enabling me to meet our KRA’s and make insightful decisions on the project”

“One of the key differences in the 3D Safety platform is the support team that sits behind the program. They are able to work with the project and configure the system to meet our needs. This was invaluable during the recent changing COVID landscape imposed in Victoria."
