To construct the main works, the (Ferrovial BAM JV) Track Systems Contractor (FBRS) will develop and operate temporary railheads/connections to the Network Rail infrastructure, to meet the construction logistics requirements for material deliveries by rail and support the requirements of other Railway System Contractors from the Alliance. These railheads/connections require temporary rail track works that will not form part of the final permanent works.
The Temporary Railhead designs required are located at:
• West Ruislip (Copthall) Temporary Railhead
• Chiltern South Temporary Railhead
• Berkswell Temporary Railhead
• Washwood Heath Temporary Connection
The Consultant shall achieve integration and coordination between temporary and permanent works design, liaising with the Permanent Works Designer.

Potential mobilization start (soft start) in September 2026 - then estimated full start February 2027.
