In February the Technotrack team supported Atkins with the NYL (Norwich/Yarmouth/Lowestoft) commissioning.
The commissioning took place over a 17 day blockade and Technotrack supplied S&T Supervisors, Team Leaders, Installers, Civils staff as well as support vehicles and drivers. Our Level crossing team were also deployed on this project to help throughout to change over numerous new crossing systems. We have received very positive feedback from the Atkins management team for all of our staff’s hard work and commitment throughout the commissioning which was hit very hard by 2 x storms and very bad weather. We look forward to continuing to support Atkins with any future projects.
