WestNet Rail
WestNet
Rail controls over 5000 kilometres of crucial rail infrastructure
throughout the southern half of Western Australia – from Geraldton in
the north, to Leonora and Kalgoorlie in the east, and south to
Esperance, Albany and Bunbury.
Owned by ASX-listed Prime
Infrastructure, WestNet Rail is one of the few independent rail
infrastructure providers in the world, and is responsible for access
management, signalling and communication systems, train control and rail
construction and maintenance throughout its network.
WestNet Rail
transports a wide range of commodities including grain, alumina,
bauxite, iron ore and interstate freight – as well as passengers on the
Perth to Kalgoorlie and Perth to Bunbury line – thus playing a vital
role in protecting and growing Western Australia’s economy.
Freight
volumes are expected to double within the next five years, through rapid
expansion in the resources sector and continuing growth in interstate
freight. WestNet Rail is well placed to benefit from this expansion, and
is working with government and industry to strategically plan and grow
capacity in the State’s rail network.
WestNet Rail is committed
to enabling existing and emerging projects to develop and expand by
providing an environmentally beneficial, safe and low cost means of bulk
materials handling.
