Amey extends long-term relationship with Network Rail. The company has been awarded two critical lots on the Eastern Routes Partnership Framework.
Amey will deliver renewals and enhancements across Network Rail’s Eastern region and play a pivotal role in maintaining and enhancing signalling and telecoms equipment (Lot 2a) to ensure safe and efficient rail operations.
Also critical to the framework is the maintenance and enhancement of overhead line equipment (Lot 3a), essential for electrification and efficient train services.
Supporting over 1 billion passenger journeys annually and transporting 1 million tonnes of freight each week, this five-year framework covers an extensive area.
Drawing on in-house expertise in design, advisory and analytics, Amey will create transformative solutions that strengthen resilience across the rail network and drive sustainable improvements.
“We are delighted to be selected by Network Rail to deliver on the five-year Eastern Routes Partnership Framework, with a potential five-year extension. Through our extensive knowledge of the Eastern region, we will efficiently deliver client objectives, drive industry-leading safety performance, keeping people from harm, and accelerating our environmental and sustainability commitments to achieve Network Rail’s net zero carbon targets.
“Our exceptional expertise in working collaboratively with key partners will enable the partnership to find smarter, more sustainable solutions, delivering faster and more reliable train journeys”, Peter Anderson, Managing Director at Amey, said.
Having recently been selected by Network Rail to deliver its capital delivery frameworks for the North-West and Central region, Amey has vast experience in other complex, challenging infrastructure, such as the multi-billion pound Transpennine Route Upgrade. The programme will better connect passengers in the North between Manchester, Huddersfield, Leeds and York and provide more reliable, faster and greener journeys, whilst improving connectivity.
