An Atkins and CH2M team has been awarded a £1.5-million (EUR 1.8m) contract to deliver the Stage 1 On-Networks Systems programme for Network Rail on the proposed Crossrail 2 project.
The work will cover the mainline to Hampton Court, Epsom, Chessington South and Shepperton in the South West as well as Broxbourne Junction to Tottenham Hale in West Anglia.
The project team will work collaboratively on the development of the upgrade designs for the Network Rail-owned stations, tracks and rail infrastructure on either side of the proposed tunnelled section, which will play a key role in Crossrail 2.
The first stage of the work is to develop the initial proposals to support the revision to the business case and to enable the next public consultation. Subject to acceptance of the business case, this process will culminate in the submission of the Hybrid Bill to Parliament in 2019, as recommended by the National Infrastructure Commission.
