TRU: Huddersfield to Leeds – Delivering on the ground
11/02/2025 @ 16:30 - 18:00
Stuart Witts, BAM Nuttall
Lancaster, Barrow and Carlisle Section in-person meeting
The presentation will provide an insight into the ongoing works to deliver major railway infrastructure enhancements on the busy Transpennine rail corridor between Huddersfield and Leeds, which connects major cities in the North. This section of route will see a huge amount of work over the coming years to deliver additional tracks, major station upgrades, line speed increases and the installation of overhead line equipment. After several years in the planning and development phase, the works are now fully mobilised on site within this section of route.
The last twelve month period has been particularly busy on the ground, with works undertaken to the track, stations, bridges and earthworks. In addition a large amount of preparatory work has been undertaken, such as a programme of works to treat historic mining activity across the route. The specific engineering and operational challenges presented by the Grade I listed station at Huddersfield will be outlined in the presentation, together with the proposed works.
Meeting in-person from 16:00 for a 16:30 start. Light refreshments available.
