Transdev Australasia is an operator of bus, ferry, light rail and heavy rail services in Australia and New Zealand. It is a subsidiary of French-based, international Transdev. It was formed in 2013 by grouping the operations of Veolia Transport Australia (previously Connex) [1] and former Transdev together, as a result of the global rebranding from Veolia Transdev to Transdev.

Contents

Veolia Transport's predecessor CGEA first entered the Australian market in 1998 when it formed a joint venture to purchase the Sydney Monorail and operate the Sydney Light Rail. The old Transdev entered the Australian market in 2001 with the purchase of Shorelink in Sydney's North Shore. Connex entered the New Zealand market in 2004 when it won the tender to operate rail services in Auckland.

As of September 2019, Transdev Australasia employed more than 5,800 people and operated 2,100 vehicles and vessels, delivering more than 150 million customer journeys each year across Australia and New Zealand. [2]

Transdev John Holland

Transdev John Holland is a 75–25 joint venture between Transdev and John Holland which operates bus services in the eastern suburbs of Sydney since April 2022, taking over from State Transit.

Transdev Sydney

Transdev Sydney operates light rail services in Sydney on behalf of Transport for NSW. [3] The light rail network includes the Inner West Light Rail and from 2019, the CBD and South East Light Rail. Formerly known as Veolia Transport Sydney, it also operated the Sydney Monorail until June 2013.

The operation of the light rail and monorail in August 1998 was Veolia Transport's first venture into Australia, and was still known as CGEA Transport back then. [4] CGEA Transport formed a joint venture (51%) with Sydney Light Rail Company (SLRC), which were the owners of the Sydney Light Rail, called CGEA Transport Sydney. The joint venture was formed to purchase TNT Transit Systems, the owner of the monorail and operator of the light rail. This resulted in CGEA Transport owning the monorail as well as operating the light rail. CGEA Transport, already renamed to Connex in 1999, sold its share of the monorail to the SLRC in early 2001. [5] [6] The SLRC and CGEA Transport Sydney (without the Connex share) later combined to form Metro Transport Sydney. Metro Transport Sydney continued to contract the operation services to the Connex, whose subsidiary was known as Veolia Transport Sydney since 2005. [7]

After the Metro Transport Sydney's purchase by the Government of New South Wales on 23 March 2012, the operation contract with Veolia Transport Sydney was maintained. [8] The monorail was decommissioned on 30 June 2013. [9] [10] A new contract, beginning in mid 2015, covering operation of the Inner West and CBD and South East Light Rail lines was signed with the ALTRAC Light Rail consortium in December 2014. As a member of the consortium, Transdev retained the right to operate the Inner West line (now renamed Dulwich Hill Line) and the new line. [11] The new line opened in stages between December 2019 and March 2020.

Transdev, as part of the Great River City Light Rail consortium, was awarded the Supply, Operate and Maintain contract for the Parramatta Light Rail stage 1 project in 2018. [12] As part of the consortium, Transdev Australasia will be operating the Parramatta Light Rail when it opens in 2024.

[13] In July 2019, Harbour City Ferries commenced a new contract until June 2028. [14] To coincide with the contract, Harbour City Ferries was rebranded Transdev Sydney Ferries. [15]

After series of purchases and changes of name, the company was purchased by Connex in 1999 and rebranded Transdev NSW in 2013. Since 2005, the company's services have formed part of Sydney Bus Regions 10 and 13, [26] [27] with the company also taking responsibility for Region 12 from Transdev Shorelink Buses in 2013. Between May and August 2023, its operations passed to CDC NSW, Transit Systems and U-Go Mobility after the regions it operated were re-tendered.
