Transurban
Spanning three levels in the new Poly Centre, we recently completed the fitout for Transurban – one of the world’s leading toll-road operators, whose focus sits with safety first.
Looking to relocate from a smaller space at Chifley Square, the client engaged us on an ECI basis to deliver the 2,331sqm workplace and we worked on the full suite of pre-construction and construction services, including assistance with design coordination, compliance assistance, costing, buildability, prototyping, procurement, site investigations, authority approvals and other planning and risk mitigation activities. Following the successful delivery of the ECI phase, we went on to deliver the construction phase of the project as well.
While Melbourne is technically the HQ for Transurban, Sydney is an important market with a number of external partnerships formed here. This created a need for more external-facing areas, meeting rooms and a focus on the client experience. The client also wanted to create an exceptional employee experience and amenity.
The result is a beautiful space, complete with high-end finishes, where you’d be forgiven for thinking you are in a contemporary hotel or gallery space. As you journey through the new workplace it includes a staircase, steel structural elements, large freestanding meeting pods built in a double-height space and a new terrace.
There are multiple bespoke elements to the space, including an elevated lighting feature “Veil” surrounding the pods and custom double-height raked concrete renders. Transurban also had a high focus on AV to ensure the space is interactive and seamlessly integrates with the architectural elements, including the installation of workplace systems and custom video ceiling- and wall-screen panels.
