Rail
Bringing innovation, expertise and reliability to vital infrastructure projects across the UK
What we do
Connecting people, communities and businesses through safe, reliable and resilient rail infrastructure.
We deliver civil engineering solutions across the UK rail network, enhancing asset performance and supporting efficient railway operations. From structures, stations, depots and earthworks to light rail schemes, our teams safely deliver projects within operational railway environments while minimising disruption to passengers and services.
Structures
Structures
From strengthening and refurbishment to full asset replacement, we deliver structural solutions across bridges, tunnels and retaining structures in some of the network’s most challenging environments. Through engineering expertise, careful planning and self-delivery, we enhance asset performance while minimising disruption to rail services.
Stations
Stations
Our experience spans new station construction, platform extensions, accessibility improvements, footbridges and associated civil engineering works. Working in busy operational environments, we deliver modern, efficient stations that enhance accessibility, improve passenger experience and support operational performance.
Depots
Depots
We deliver maintenance depots, stabling facilities, hardstanding, drainage, access roads and supporting infrastructure for rail operators across the UK. Working closely with clients and operators, we provide durable solutions that support safe operations and the long-term performance of rolling stock.
Earthworks
Earthworks
Our teams deliver embankment stabilisation, cutting improvements, drainage enhancements and ground engineering works across operational rail environments. Combining specialist expertise with careful planning and self-delivery capability, we reduce risk, improve resilience and support long-term asset performance.
Track
Track
Our work includes track renewals, level crossings, drainage, enabling works and associated civil engineering activities. Through careful planning and coordination, we deliver projects that maintain network performance while improving the resilience and longevity of critical rail assets.
Light Rail
Light Rail
Working across tramway infrastructure, stops, structures and public realm interfaces, we help operators maintain and enhance urban transport networks. Delivering projects in complex city environments, we balance operational requirements with the needs of passengers, businesses and communities.
Plant Hire
Plant Hire
Our modern fleet includes excavators, rail plant, specialist equipment, road vehicles and lifting solutions supporting projects across multiple sectors. Operated by experienced teams and backed by dedicated maintenance support, our plant capability improves productivity, programme certainty and the safe delivery of complex works.
Geotech
Geotech
We support clients from initial site appraisal through to detailed investigation and interpretation, helping identify constraints, reduce risk and inform decision-making throughout project development. Through ground investigation, laboratory testing, reporting and specialist technical advice, we provide the insight needed to develop practical, buildable and cost-effective solutions.
