The time has come for the Midland Line tracks to be shifted to their permanent location. Due to the proximity of operating rail and the need to isolate power for safety reasons, a series of nightworks is required to tie in old and new.

Our rail crews have hit the ground running in the new year, achieving a number of track laying-related milestones within the first month. The first hi-rail vehicles – dual-mode vehicles that can operate on both roads and rail tracks – are also now operating on the new tracks.
