Cyber Security Baseline Assessment for City Rail Link, Auckland
The Challenge City Rail Link is a new 3.5km dual-bore tunnel under Auckland connecting into existing brownfield operating areas of the Kiwi Rail network — one of New Zealand’s largest rail infrastructure projects. The project was being delivered primarily through an alliance model, with separate operating and signalling networks run by Auckland Transport and KiwiRail […]
V/Line — Identity & Access Management Design
The Challenge V/Line needed to improve cyber resilience across its Operational Control System network by restricting unnecessary access to critical OCS/TCS assets and establishing a centralised Identity and Access Management (IAM) system with AAA and 802.1x support. Without a structured IAM framework, the risk of unauthorised access to safety-critical rail infrastructure remained unacceptably high and […]
V/Line — OCS Network Infrastructure Uplift
The Challenge V/Line’s Operational Control System (OCS) network required significant infrastructure uplift across multiple domains to support the Regional Rail Revival program, improve cyber readiness, and address performance and visibility gaps across the core routing, distribution switching and WAN layers. The work spanned multiple concurrent projects across a live operational network. The Solution L2iQ initially […]
Sydney Metro — Western Sydney Airport Rail
The Challenge The Western Sydney Airport Metro Rail project required specialist technical expertise in Communications systems to develop a credible installation strategy, programme, and resource analysis for one of Australia’s most significant rail infrastructure investments. The scale, complexity and airport operational interface requirements made this a technically demanding engagement from day one. The Solution L2iQ […]
Parramatta Light Rail — Stage 2 Technical Advisory
The Challenge The Parramatta Light Rail Stage 2 project required specialist rail systems design leadership to develop the reference design and business case. A multi-stakeholder program of this complexity demands deep technical expertise across requirements development, interface management, procurement strategy and interoperability — combined with the practical operational insight that only comes from having delivered […]
Parramatta Light Rail — Stage 1
The Challenge The Parramatta Light Rail Stage 1 project, between Westmead and Carlingford via the Parramatta CBD and Camellia, required physical installation of all rail systems across the new network prior to dynamic testing and passenger service commencement. This included achieving demanding intersection performance targets, requiring complex configuration and coordination with road traffic management systems […]
Securing Remote Train Control for UGL Regional Link
The Challenge UGL Regional Linx needed to enable remote control of train operations from a new control centre located at Orange NSW. Introducing remote control into a safety-critical rail environment meant cyber security risk had to be managed to Transport for NSW’s stringent requirements — and proven compliant before go-live. The Solution L2iQ was engaged […]
Cyber Security Operations for Sydney Metro West
The Challenge Sydney Metro West is one of Australia’s largest rail infrastructure projects, requiring a robust and proven cyber security operations capability across a 15-year contract term. RATP DEV, engaged to operate and maintain the metro, needed to demonstrate to Sydney Metro a credible and costed cyber security monitoring function — encompassing both the technology […]
Canberra Light Rail — Stage 2A
The Challenge Canberra Light Rail Stage 2A required end-to-end delivery of all rail technology systems within a Design and Construct contract, while managing the critical interface with the existing operational Stage 1 network running alongside the construction zone. This demands specialist expertise in live-network interface management, systems integration, operational safety, and multi-stakeholder coordination across ACT […]
Canberra Light Rail — Stage
The Challenge The delivery of Canberra’s inaugural light rail line required end-to-end systems integration and technology architecture capability. The Gungahlin to Alinga corridor needed to achieve demanding journey time targets while integrating with Canberra’s existing road traffic management systems — requiring sophisticated signal priority design and SCATS integration across a complex urban corridor that had […]
