Costain joint ventures win two Crossrail contracts
Costain, one of the UK's leading tier one engineering solutions
providers, is pleased to announce that ATC ('ATC'), its Joint
Venture with Alstom and TSO, has been awarded a contract worth
approximately GBP300m to design, fit-out and commission the railway
systems in Crossrail's tunnel network.
Under the contract, ATC will design and install track, overhead
lines and mechanical and electrical equipment to fit out the 21km
of twin tunnels currently being bored under the streets of
London.
Design work will commence immediately, with the fit-out works
starting in 2014, and will be carried out within the entire
tunnelled and surface sections of the Crossrail route between Royal
Oak, Pudding Mill Lane and Plumstead Portals.
Costain is also pleased to announce that in Joint Venture with
Alstom it has been awarded the GBP15m contract for the design,
construction and commissioning of the system that will provide
traction power for the trains in the central tunnelled section of
the Crossrail scheme.
Work will involve the construction of several auto-transformer
stations and a feeder station site at Pudding Mill Lane to provide
a 25 kV supply to the overhead line equipment that will power the
new Crossrail trains. Costain is also constructing for National
Grid the new cable tunnels to provide power to the other Crossrail
feeder station at Kensal Green.
Crossrail will open in 2018. The Crossrail route will pass
through 37 stations and will increase London's rail-based transport
network capacity by 10 per cent. An estimated 200 million people
will travel on Crossrail each year.
Andrew Wyllie, Chief Executive of Costain, commented,
"The Crossrail scheme is providing a much-needed solution to
upgrading a key part of the nation's travel infrastructure. We are
delighted to have been awarded these contracts, which follow on
from other Crossrail projects we are involved in, including the
construction of the Bond Street and Paddington stations and works
at Eleanor Street and Mile End Park. We believe these further wins
demonstrate the successful implementation of our 'Choosing Costain'
strategy in which we focus group-wide resources on meeting the
developing requirements of major blue chip customers."
