SYSTRA will be working in a 50/50 joint venture with Arup for a period of 5 years, with the possibility of a further 3 years. Together, with Skanska as a local strategic partner, we will take part in a framework agreement for the modernisation of networks in the North and East of England.
The DDPF covers the supervision of multi-disciplinary design studies and support for several key rail programmes such as Northern Powerhouse Rail (NPR). All these initiatives are designed to strengthen the rail network in the north of the country and further interconnect its economic centres and residents.
This framework agreement strategically positions SYSTRA, Arup and Skanska at the forefront of rail transformations in the North and East of England. We are delighted to be able to bring our expertise and that of our partners to bear on this major infrastructure modernisation programme.
Nick Salt, CEO SYSTRA UK & Ireland
Combining experience and knowledge
Arup and SYSTRA collectively bring a wealth of experience and geographical knowledge across the framework area, from their complementary involvement in the West and East Alliances of the TransPennine Route Upgrade (TRU) and the East Coast Main Line Power Supply Upgrade, in addition to the insights and relationships built during previous work for Network Rail and sub-national transport body Transport for the North. Skanska further enhances the JV through their experience of delivering large scale rail projects.
