Overview
This was a tricky project insofar as we were working under severe restraints. Access was limited to periods of track closure, including weekend night work. Our machines had to be equipped with rubber tracks, so as not to trip out rail signalling devices. Overall height limit was 4 metres due to proximity of overhead power lines. We installed screw piles which had to be made in short increments, to allow for height restrictions.
