A new perspective on HumeLink West ⚡

Remote drone operations are now underway following approval from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority - CASA, marking a new way of capturing reliable, real‑time insights across the West project.

CASA’s national survey on beyond visual line of sight drone operations highlights that a key driver for adoption across Australian infrastructure projects is reducing the need for people to work in hazardous, remote or hard‑to‑access environments. This capability is helping achieve exactly that. ✨

Delivered by UGL LTD and CPB Contractors joint venture, in collaboration with Skyports Drone Services, this fully automated "drone-in-a-box" is now permanently based on site and flown remotely from a secure operations centre in Sydney. In simple terms, the drone is on site, while the pilot isn't. 🚁

The result is faster inspections, repeatable flight paths, and more frequent, high-quality imagery. Drone use supports routine systems, giving project teams consistent data they can rely on. 💪

HumeLink West is part of Transgrid’s landmark HumeLink project, a new 500 kV transmission line connecting Wagga Wagga, Bannaby and Maragle to increase network capacity and support Australia’s energy transition.

This initiative reflects 's drive for and in our project delivery.

✅ Australian Made. Hunter Proud. Future Focused.

Long before Australian Made became a recognised badge of quality, the team at Broadmeadow was building the capability, skills and expertise that continue to power our rail industry today.

What started in 1899 with 100 coal wagons built by Alfred Goninan has grown into UGL Transport's largest manufacturing and maintenance facility, supporting customers across freight, mining and passenger rail.

Today, that legacy lives on through the hundreds of people who design, build, maintain and overhaul rail assets right here in Australia.

is proud to be part of a story that spans generations, while continuing to invest in the people, innovation and local capability that will keep Australian manufacturing strong for years to come.

For more than a century, a site in the heart of the Hunter Valley has been keeping Australia moving.

🌟 From certainty to curiosity - a graduate journey

When Saffron Butler joined , she had a clear career path in mind. Over a year on, that’s changed, and she sees it as a win.

“I feel like I know less about exactly what I want to do now, but that’s a positive thing.”

Through hands-on experience across energy projects ⚡, Saffron has discovered new interests, built practical skills, and learnt the value of failing forward.

💡 Her advice:
“Saying yes to opportunities, even the ones that feel uncomfortable at first, can open doors you never expected,” she said. “That willingness to try something different has been key to reaching where I am today.”🤝

Because in engineering, growth comes from trying, learning, and adapting 🚀
