Gamuda Bhd of Malaysia has an active role to play in Australia’s drive to beef up its infrastructure. In March 2019, it set up Gamuda Australia to capitalise on the Australian government’s aim to spend up to AU$120 billion (RM375 billion) over ten years through its Infrastructure Investment Programme.
A key part of Gamuda’s strategy in Australia is partnering with local and international businesses to deliver infrastructure projects.
Its biggest win to date has been securing the Sydney Metro West–Western Tunnelling Package, delivered by a consortium with Laing O’Rourke.
The Western Tunnelling Package scope includes 9 km of twin metro rail tunnels from Sydney Olympic Park to Westmead.
Gamuda Australia is now considered the group’s second largest base in the region, with the Australian unit ready to bid for diverse infrastructure projects ranging from tunnelling to road and clean energy.
Over the long term, Gamuda’s vision is to become a leader in the Australian infrastructure and construction sector by offering innovative solutions for large-scale public infrastructure projects and private investment opportunities.
