What we are doing

Update

We are working with Network Rail to plan and deliver these works on the West Coast Mainline (WCML). As this is one of the UK’s busiest rail routes, we are undertaking works during overnight closures which will continue between February and July 2023. Over this period we will carry out:

• Surveys & inspection works

•Installation of an access track and ramps leading up to the railway

• Installation of a utility bridge

• Maintenance works and vegetation clearance

• Works to construct and install the Fulfen Wood bridge

We will use a range of tools, lighting, survey equipment, rail vehicles and large machinery (cranes, excavators, concrete wagons, and pumps) during this period.

Following on from our previous communication we will continue working overnight, each weekend, from 11 February to 29 July 2023. Our working hours will be from 10pm (each Saturday night) to 9am (each Sunday morning).

During this period we will occasionally undertake 24 hour working, during the week, as we construct the Fulfen Wood bridge on land next to the WCML.
