[Update August 2020 – to hear more about how EMSOL worked with Network Rail at Birmingham New Street you can also listen to the webinar ‘Improving Air Quality in Rail‘ featuring speakers from Network Rail and HS2]
Birmingham New Street, operated by Network Rail, has received plenty of attention in the last few years for poor air quality in the station. Working in partnership with EMSOL, Network Rail is now at the forefront of companies in the rail sector taking action on air quality. This introduces targeted identification of emissions within the station and concourse, enabling real benefits from rail passengers and staff.
Birmingham New Street will benefit from:
– Specific, granular evidence to support mitigation actions
– Precise, targeted data to reduce emissions every day
– Insight that makes it simpler and easier to be environmentally ethical
– Real-time alerts when there is a problem.
EMSOL is also working in the rail sector in collaboration with East West Rail Alliance (EWRA) (an alliance of Volker Rail, Network Rail, Laing O’Rourke and Atkins). EWRA are responsible for the £1.5 billion rail program that will reconnect Cambridge and Oxford in one of the most prestigious projects in the UK infrastructure pipeline. The government has committed to invest £40bn in the UK rail infrastructure between 2019-2024.
If you are interested in learning more about how EMSOL can help your business take action on air quality we would be happy to talk.
