SUMMARY:Piccadilly Line upgrade: engineering challenges & contributing carbon net zero 2030
DESCRIPTION:Ashraff Cader\, CEng\, FICE and Amarnath Paul\, CEng\, MICE\nOverview: The Piccadilly Line Upgrade (PLU) will provide new trains and associated infrastructure to modernise the Piccadilly Line. The PLU is spilt into two stages: \n\nStage 1\, the introduction of a new rolling stock fleet and associated enabling works\nStage 2 – a full upgrade of the Piccadilly Line signalling system to a modern digital network\n\nPLU Stage 1 is a £2.8bn programme that will provide a new fleet of air-cooled modern trains for the Piccadilly Line with improved reliability\, efficiency and accessibility\, together with new and expanded maintenance and stabling facilities. Stage 1 will result in a 23% uplift in peak capacity with trains running at 27 trains per hour or a train every 2 minutes 13 seconds. Full introduction of the new fleet and the subsequent timetable uplift is planned for early to mid-2027.

SUMMARY:Reconstruction of Birmingham University Station
DESCRIPTION:George Smith and George Dirrane\, VolkerFitzpatrick and Edward Carstairs\, Mott MacDonald\n ICE Event\nHybrid Event – this is an in-person and online event. \nSynopsis: Opened in 1978\, University Station in Birmingham was designed to serve 500\,000 passengers per year but over 40 years later is serving almost 4 million people per year– with demand expected to rise further in coming years. \nThis essential upgrade project will see VolkerFitzpatrick supported by Mott Macdonald deliver the detailed design and construction of the new station\, which will provide an attractive modern gateway into the University of Birmingham’s Edgbaston campus and the nearby Queen Elizabeth Hospital\, support regeneration activities in the area\, increase passenger capacity and provide improved access to the rail network. \nThe new railway station building will feature wider platforms\, lifts\, a ticket office\, provision for a retail unit\, canopy coverage along the platforms and a direct link with the University of Birmingham campus via a new pedestrian canal bridge. The existing station building will be retained as a passenger exit from the station. \nThis presentation covers the different disciplines involved within the project –from the early design stages (GRIP4) through to construction\, including temporary works and constructability issues and how modern methods of design where incorporated to achieve an accelerated programme. This will also cover considerations when working in a rail environment and dealing with stakeholders. \nBOOK YOUR SPACE HERE \n
