ScopeEleven telecom racks - warehouse pre-dress, tunnel delivery and install
DeliverySpecial train at 1:50 am, stopping in the tunnels

APD Global delivered eleven telecom racks into the cross-passage tunnel on the Forrestfield–Airport Link. The racks were planned and pre-dressed at the warehouse so the night possession could be used for install, not assembly.

The design had to fit live tunnel constraints and a fixed delivery window. Working with Nokia and the Public Transport Authority, the agreed deadline was met. A special train ran at 1:50 am and stopped in the tunnels to place the rack infrastructure.

What APD Global delivered

  • Warehouse pre-dress of all eleven telecom racks
  • Design for tunnel and cross-passage constraints
  • Night delivery and install into the rail corridor
