Programme Framework
From 2015 until 2020 we completed renewal projects as part of Network Rail’s Programme Framework.
This framework was an extensive programme to enhance and renew major assets within the London north western and east midlands routes. We delivered multiple projects under the framework between Crewe and Gretna Green.
The largest project under the framework was the 650V signalling and power supply renewals scheme, which commenced in August 2010. This £10 million, two year project saw the team renew 123kn of signalling power equipment between Warrington and Burton and Holme.
The work delivered under this framework represented a significant portion of the £38bn Network Rail invested over CP5 to maintain and improve Britain's railway, which currently sees four million passenger journeys and thousands of tonnes of freight transported every single day.
