The railway network is critical to our UK infrastructure and it's millions of daily users
From trackside drainage, carpark attenuation to cable protection and access, we support the Rail community with a range of solutions, no matter the scale of project, from maintenance to HS2.
For the Track
Reliable trackside infrastructure requires effective water management and protected utility networks. Poor drainage can lead to ballast washout, track instability and costly service disruptions. Engineered solutions such as Ridgidrain provide efficient trackside water management, helping to control surface water and protect rail assets and Ridgitreat, which encompasses the high performance of Ridgidrain with the added water treatment via a geomembrane which captures hydrocarbons and enhances water quality eliminating the need for end of line petrol interceptors.
Alongside drainage, durable ducting systems and access chambers support the safe routing and protection of essential rail utilities, ensuring maintenance teams can easily access critical services. Our PADS approved Ridgicoil and Ridgiduct products provide advanced protection across the range of signalling and telecommunications requirements, alongside and beneath the railway. Combined with a Under Track Crossing (UTX) chamber, a bespoke chamber design fabricated to the requirements of each project with 3, 6 or 9 way spigot arrangement for cable protection connections, Polypipe Civils & Green Urbanisation can supply a complete solution to your railway project needs.
