About the Rail business unit

Millions of people rely on Britain’s rail network to take them safely and efficiently across the country every day. Morgan Sindall helps this happen by providing renewed and enhanced rail infrastructure with the minimum of passenger disruption.

This is complemented by track and signalling works from our supply chain partners to provide a complete rail offering.

These include ‘live launch’ bridge construction, in which we can install bridges while allowing railways beneath to remain operational.
