Customer Challenge:
Replacement and installation of new turnout layouts and sleepers, replacing degraded wood bearers and sleepers due to coastal conditions. Better performing bearers and sleepers were sought to reduce maintenance, track closure and frequent bearer S&C replacement. Prefabrication metal work completed by contractor specified by the client.
Sicut Solution:
The existing turnouts were built using wood sleepers which deteriorated quickly due to the surrounding wet environment. Sicut sleepers with a cross section of 132mm x 254mm were used to manufacture turnout layouts by the clients contractor.
