MC Electronics are pleased to announce their attendance at the Infrarail 2010 exhibition in Birmingham.
High levels of investment continue in Britain’s railways. Network Rail, operator of the country’s national railway infrastructure, is to spend £28.5 billion over the five years from April 2009, including £7.6 billion on network expansion projects. In addition, London’s £15.9 billion Crossrail project is going ahead, as is the £5.5 billion Thameslink scheme. Investments in the capital also include modernisation of the London Underground system and creation of the London Overground network.
Scotland too is gaining major improvements to its rail and public transport networks, with lines being reopened, a new link to Glasgow airport planned and work under way on Edinburgh’s light rail system.
In the longer term, large-scale main line electrification and the construction of new high-speed lines are increasingly viewed as essential steps in developing Britain’s transport infrastructure.
These investments are set to keep the rail industry’s suppliers very busy. Infrarail provides a unique opportunity for firms targeting this market and wider international opportunities to present their capabilities and technologies.
Come and see us to see how our innovative product range can help deliver a safer railway network.
