In this article, we explore a particular variant of neoliberal thought by analysing the proposal, design, funding and operation of an element of transport infrastructure in Sydney, Australia that was developed as a public-private partnership (PPP). Although there has been considerable work on the theoretical advantages and disadvantages of PPPs, there has been little empirically informed critical analysis of how PPPs operate in practice, and even less on how environmental arguments are selectively used to justify PPPs. The Cross City Tunnel (CCT) is one of Australia's most controversial examples of urban transport infrastructure. Although an engineering success, the CCT was far from being environmentally sustainable, socially just or economically viable. The CCT reveals the contradictions of neoliberal policy regimes, shallow sustainability rhetoric, the inappropriateness of the PPP model for other urban infrastructure developments in Sydney and internationally, and a capacity on the part of the partners to learn inappropriate lessons.RésuméCet article s'intéresse à une variante particulière de la pensée néolibérale en analysant la proposition, le concept, le financement et le fonctionnement d'un élément de l'infrastructure de transport de Sydney qui a étéélaboré en tant que partenariat public-privé (PPP). De nombreux travaux ont été consacrés aux avantages et inconvénients théoriques des PPP, mais il existe peu d'analyses critiques à partir de données empiriques sur le fonctionnement pratique de ces partenariats, encore moins sur l'utilisation sélective d'arguments environnementaux pour les justifier. L'un des cas les plus controversés d'infrastructure de transport urbain en Australie est le Cross City Tunnel (CCT). Bien qu'étant une réussite technique, la durabilité environnementale, la justice sociale ou la viabilitééconomique était loin de le caractériser. Le CCT révèle les contradictions des régimes politiques néolibéraux, la rhétorique superficielle de la durabilité environnementale, l'inadéquation du modèle des PPP pour d'autres créations d'infrastructures urbaines, à Sydney comme au niveau international, ainsi qu'une capacité des partenaires à apprendre de mauvaises leçons
