‘SPINE’ PROJECT OVERVIEW
.
• Redevelopment eliminates existing spine to create a atrium.
• 1 level of car parking removed to create huge atrium.
• Western Spine carries power and water services for all the station and 12 platforms
• Our solution consisted of 26 modules and five risers

NETWORK RAIL’S UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES
.
“The ‘Spine’ project demonstrates NG Bailey’s bold
and pioneering approach to engineering and
clearly highlights the benefit that BIM and offsite
solutions can deliver.
Their engineering skills ensured passengers and
trains remained undisrupted.
The team also managed to shorten the overall
project time, creating both time and costs savings
for Network Rail.” Chris Montgomery
Project director at Network Rail
OFFSITE OUTCOMES
.
• Program
Tight program with January Deadline
Delivered 6 weeks early

• No trains disrupted
The Buildoffsite view
1. Huge obstacles
2. Huge innovation
3. Program, cost and carbon all reduced v traditional
4. Everyone safe
5. Demonstrates the benefit of BIM and Offsite in
