The main financial benefit is a reduction in the cost as a result of moving to more reliable and up to date technical solution. The existing BBT system support and maintenance expenditure are 3.5 times more expensive than the new 4th Gen BBT based on cost comparison for the five locations on a per annum basis. The main non-financial benefit is a reduction in train-related delays due to the ability to apply the latest alarm algorithms to the 4th Gen BBT system, which reduces the number of false bearing and wheel related incidents. In comparison, the 2nd Gen BBT system can no longer support these updates, and as a result, the System is more prone to false alarm events resulting in train delays. Moreover, this investment demonstrates Sydney Trains' commitment to product development based on advancements in the area of train monitoring, obsolesce issues, known faults, and worldwide best practices. The design of the new 4th Gen BBT System allows minimal time to be in the danger zone
