Station Refurbishments
Contractor : Kier
Location : Cardross, Kennishead & St James
We carried out refurbishment works at three different Train Stations in the Glasgow area - St James, Cardross & Kennishead. The contract involved the refurbishment of the stations platform link bridges in order to bring them into compliance with DDA specification. All works were carried out by our qualified operatives during ‘Track Possessions’. The bridges were in varying states of disrepair and thus each one required different elements of repair work to be carried out such as: - The removal and replacement of compromised/rusted steel support sections. - The removal of existing handrails & balustrades and the fabrication and installation of replacements. - The removal of staircase treads and the fabrication and installation of replacements. - The application of Euro Grip 1500 anti-slip coating to all stair treads and landings - The complete removal of staircases and the fabrication and erection of replacements (stairs were removed and replacements installed in a single 'track possession').
