Platform extensions & new platforms
Concrete extensions are being used at several stations across the UK to allow new ten-car trains to operate rather than the old eight-car trains. We recently supplied concrete components to Essex based Scott Parnell Rail to extend Chertsey station. 65 cross beams and nearly 1,000 beams – cut to various lengths of up to 4 metres were used to create a block and beam flooring system.
To date, we have now supplied or secured work for the following stations across London and the South East railway network: Ashford, Whitton, St Margaret’s, Putney, North Sheen, Effingham, West Hampstead, Twickenham, Staines and Barnes.
