Clancy win £2.5M SER contract for London Underground
RailWe are delighted to have been awarded a new £2.5M contract with London Underground. The work includes construction of the new Signal Equipment Rooms at Embankment, Plaistow, Dagenham East & Upminster.
London Underground Limited (LU) anticipates that the number of passengers using the Sub Surface Railway (SSR) will rise considerably over the next few years. In order to manage this anticipated increase in patronage, the capability of the infrastructure to support the train service needs to be enhanced. To achieve the service capability enhancements, LU has developed an upgrade strategy titled the Four Lines Modernisation (4LM) which requires the introduction of new rolling stock, new signalling, new train control facilities including associated infrastructure and depot works.
The objective of the works included in this framework is to provide appropriate Civils and Premises and M&E works (including fire, alarms and comms) associated in delivering the requirements of the Wayside Enabling sub-programme (SER / CID / Migration Enabling) in support of the Railway Systems Delivery ATC implementation.
