project management of rail projects

Roughton has an excellent understanding of all aspects of railway operations and railway construction, whether new build, enhancement or renewal and can offer a complete service for the project management of railway projects.

The scope and complexity of rail projects is enormous. Projects can range from small single discipline projects such as a short section of track renewal to the most complex multi-disciplinary mass transit projects which involve the turnkey delivery of an operating railway.

There are two features that make the management of railway projects stand out from other projects:

  • Systems interfacing
  • Safety

We offer a total project management service which ensures that the project is completed on time, within budget and to defined quality standards.

Integrated disciplines

An operating railway is a result of integrated disciplines. At the highest level of simplicity, a rail project can be broken down into three basic disciplines. Our project managers are skilled in managing the many facets involved:

  • Civil and Building Infrastructure – embankments, cuttings, drainage, tunnels, under-bridges, over-bridges, viaducts, station buildings, road access, building services, depot buildings, control rooms
  • Fixed systems – track, power supply, current collection, signalling, telecommunications, SCADA, ticketing and fare collection, passenger information systems, platform screen doors, depot and maintenance equipment, loading facilities, level crossings
  • Rolling stock – extensive range of specifications to suit mass transit, light rail, commuter, intercity and freight systems
