Over a 12 month period works were carried out to replace the existing Georgian wired glazing system in the station concourse and all station canopies with 10,000 new TwinFix polycarbonate glazing panels.

Following flooding in December 2015, Story designed and installed flood alleviation measures at the McVities factory in Carlisle.

During a 5 month period, works were undertaken to renew the track slab within the Mersey Loop at Liverpool.

Commencing in Spring 2016; works were undertaken to build a new car park and develop the access area surrounding Workington Railway Station, on behalf of Cumbria County Council.
