The Seymour Whyte BMD Group Joint Venture has been recognised at the 2026 CCF NSW Earth Awards, taking out the category for projects valued over $150 million for the successful delivery of the Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport Landside Civil and Building Works Package.
Presented by the Civil Contractors Federation NSW, the Earth Awards recognise excellence in civil construction, celebrating projects that demonstrate outstanding performance, innovation and collaboration across the industry.
The award reflects the dedication, expertise and teamwork of everyone involved in delivering the landside civil and building works for Australia’s first major greenfield airport in more than 50 years.
Delivered in partnership with BMD, the project showcases the strength of collaboration and a shared commitment to delivering world-class infrastructure that will support the growth of Western Sydney for decades to come.
Seymour Whyte Project Director Chris Bentley said:
“This project has been a highlight of my career and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lead the delivery of a truly transformational piece of infrastructure.
“The strong partnerships we built with WSA Co, designers, subcontractors and suppliers were critical to overcoming challenges and delivering a project of this scale and complexity.
“It demonstrates how great engineering is driven by a clear purpose to support the long-term growth and prosperity of a community.”
Congratulations to everyone involved on this outstanding achievement.
