Description

Lancashire County Council is to undertake the construction of a new railway station at Cottam Parkway on the Blackpool to Preston Railway line. The new station will deliver improved journey times to Preston and Blackpool and provide access to rail transport for commuter travel to jobs, business and leisure.  It will also reduce congestion into Preston City Centre by providing a park and ride facility. The improved rail access will also support the delivery of new homes in north- west Preston providing a rail service to a catchment area of around 12000 homes and will connect to the new Preston Western Distributor road scheme which is currently under construction. Lancashire County Council intends to award a contract for the design and construction of the railway station and associated structures to Network Rail Infrastructure Ltd.

Brewery Turnback - ES6-8 OLE Infrastructure

Brewery Turnback an enhancement scheme funded by the DfT. Formerly known as Manchester Victoria East Turnback, it has been prioritised for early development from the Central Manchester Capacity and Performance study to boost capacity and resilience. The scheme is for the design and delivery of a West facing turnback, located at Brewery Junction. At Victoria station, the through platforms also accommodate terminating trains due to an imbalance of local services to the east and west of the station. The extended time to terminate and turnback in the platforms restricts platform availability for through services. Operational flexibility of the station would be improved if services could utilise a turnback facility to the East of the station. The turnback would also be a service recovery measure during times of perturbation. The turnback is to accommodate trains up to 6 car x 26 m vehicles (DMU and EMU); with trains being able to access the turnback to and from Platforms 3-6 at Manchester Victoria station. As part of the MNTP programme, it was identified that the provision of a turnback facility to the East of Manchester Victoria Train station would provide operational flexibility. Currently, the platforms at Manchester Victoria must accommodate terminating trains, this restricts the availability of the through platforms, impacting performance and causing a timetable constraint. In a standard hour, two services, typically from Kirkby / Preston / Wigan are booked to terminate in the through platforms before the driver changes ends and the train departs in the opposite direction. Typical turnaround times are between 5-10 minutes, meaning that the platform, and route through it, remains occupied for the duration of the turnaround. The operational flexibility of the station would be improved if services could utilise a turnback facility to the East of the station. The turnback would also be a service recovery measure during perturbation. ES2-4 design and development was undertaken by WSP Limited and accepted by Network Rail. However, there are many instances within the designs where assumptions have been made stating that the TRU works would be complete prior to commencement of the project and all as built designs and source records would be available. OLE Infrastructure Scope of Work: The supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of new OLE infrastructure on the UP/Down Rochdale Fast and the new Turnback between Dalton Street and Miles Platting Junction (a combination of STC, TTC, and portals). New wiring on the UP/ Down Rochdale Fast and a new Turnback between Manchester Victoria and Miles Platting Junction. All associated OLE works to support the new infrastructure. This includes all hand back deliverables, such as redline drawings, O&M manuals, and attendance at AMP016 walkouts.

Provision of High Voltage (HV) Cable Maintenance and Fault Repair Services

London Underground operates and maintains a High Voltage (HV) Power Distribution Network, which includes multiple bulk supply in take points that distribute HV power to substations and distribution points through HV cables. These cables, which are 11kV and 22kV, are installed across the London Underground rail, public highways, and Network Rail Infrastructure. The existing network consists of cables over 80 years old, ranging from single and three-core Paper insulated Lead cables to Polymeric cables, with sizes varying from 70mm² to 630mm². In addition to managing HV cables, the HV Cables department also manages the control cables within the power estate, including both copper Pilot and Fibre Optic cables. To effectively manage fault repairs and maintain both HV and Pilot networks, the HV Cables department requires the ongoing support of a specialist contractor. This contractor will play a key role in assisting with power upgrades through project works. This aims to secure a commercial partnership with a specialised contractor who possesses the expertise and experience necessary to support both planned and reactive maintenance for the London Underground HV infrastructure. The services will cover maintenance, repair, fault finding, project support services and purchasing of cables to be installed.
