Scope of the Assignment • Operation and maintenance of the 250-mile Great Western highspeed route between London and Wales • Complex multi-system upgrade of existing high-speed infrastructure, including track and station enhancements • Integration of new rolling stock, power and control systems • Integration of Crossrail services into main line rail network Summary Statement for Assignment Network Rail is accountable for the $7.5B upgrade of the Great Western Main Line (GWML) route and ongoing operations and maintenance. The route currently accommodates the world’s fastest high-speed diesel service operating at speeds of up to 125 mph and has an annual growth in passenger volume of six percent. Network Rail is upgrading the whole network to accommodate new high-speed rolling stock, electrification and cab based signaling. Network Rail is delivering this complex multi-site and multi-project program so as to minimize disruption to existing services and to ensure efficiency of construction and installation. Throughout the program, Network Rail is subject to the provision of the network user agreements which penalize Network Rail for any unplanned service disruption arising from the redevelopment projects. Network Rail has introduced new onboard, factory technologies to reduce installation costs and to maximize delivery outputs. Network Rail uses these systems today to enhance safety, and to balance between the use of route outages and disruption to existing rail services. Network Rail also deploys advanced scheduling techniques and stakeholder engagement strategies to achieve support for network enhancement activities being undertaken and consequential service changes.
