RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE

Steelway offer invaluable engineering expertise and specialist fabrication experience providing an extensive range of access metalwork solutions for the rail industry. As well as a full portfolio of access metalwork we also design, manufacture and install many bespoke products from small ladders or covers to large structures such as walkways, gantries and bridges.

Steelway are involved on numerous railway upgrades and rail installation projects on the rail network throughout the UK. We design, supply, and install rail access structures including staircases, ladders, walkways, steel platforms, handrail/guardrail systems and other station upgrades. We have invested considerably over the last several years in design and fabrication processes including up to date 3D inventor design software and new laser cutting technology. This coupled with our fabrication and operating systems put us at the leading edge of fabrication excellence.

Steelway recommend involvement at the early stage of a project cycle by giving support for project costing, design input and project presentation graphics. Value added engineering can help to reduce the cost of a project considerably.

Recent projects include platforms for mounting signalling equipment at track side on the Bletchley upgrade project, at Milton Keynes, and at Blackfriars station we supplied the platform canopy structures and also access metalwork. We have replaced a number of wooden staircases and platforms with GRP fabrications to give access to signal boxes.

All our fabrications are compliant with railway regulations. All our products can be manufactured in GRP which being a non conductive material is particularly useful in areas around electrified lines and potentially hazardous or corrosive areas.
